auDA promotes from within to replace outgoing CEO.
Bruce TonkinauDA, the organization responsible for Australia’s .au country code top level domain, has named Bruce Tonkin its next CEO. Tonkin will take over the role in January.
He has been with auDA since 2017 and has been its chief operating officer since 2018.
His history in domains goes back much further. He spent nearly two decades at Melbourne IT and was also on ICANN’s board of directors from 2007 to 2016 (including as vice chairman from 2011 to 2015).
Tonkin replaces Rosemary Sinclair, who joined auDA in March 2020. She announced her planned departure earlier this year.
.Au is one of the largest ccTLD namespaces. It ended last year with 4.25 million domains under management.
