Cheryl Hayman FAICD
I am an experienced Non-Executive Director (NED) and Remuneration and Nominations Committee Chair.
I am a current NED on the Public Listed Boards of Ai Media Technologies Ltd (ASX:AIM) and Hancock and Gore Limited (ASX:HNG), where I am also the Remuneration & Nominations Committee Chair for both companies, as well as Rem and Nom member and ARC member on the board of Beston Global Foods (ASX:BFC). Additionally I am a NED and member of the Remuneration Committee with Chartered Accountants Australia & New Zealand, as well as being on the board of advisors for the Digital Experts Advisory Committee (part of the Prime Minister’s Digital Technology Taskforce). I am also currently serving as a NED for the Darlinghurst Theatre Company and Peer Support Australia, both in the not-for-profit sector.
I am a full member of Chief Executive Women (CEW).
Prior Boards include as Non executive Director of both Clover Corporation (ASX:CLV) and Shriro Holdings Ltd (ASX:SHM) as Chair or Remuneration and Nominations Committee.
Prior to entering the Boardroom I was a C-Suite marketing director who led large teams locally and overseas to achieve significant growth and develop innovative new products with global food and consumer retail companies, George Weston Foods, Yum! Restaurants and Unilever. These experiences gave me whole-of-business visibility and responsibility, which ultimately delivered strong financial success and substantial growth through quality consumer products, new product innovation and relevant customer experiences.
Outside of the boardroom, I am also a passionate mentor, having provided mentoring for over 20 years, formally and informally, particularly to professional corporate and entrepreneurial women. Formally I am a mentor for Women on Boards, Mentor Walks, Her Business and The Marketing Academy.
I live between Sydney and the Central Coast with my husband, have two gorgeous daughters and two fun-loving dogs.

“Cheryl Hayman and I have worked successfully together for over eight years. I recruited her into George Weston Foods Baking Division as Marketing Director.
Her influence on the GWF Baking business was enormous and she was held in the highest regard by the executive group”
“I have worked with Cheryl for over 10 years now. She is an amazing operator, a person who can manage at board level but also grounded enough to mentor at the junior level.
I regard highly her integrity. She knows brands inside out and can apply her great experience to every situation to articulate the most complex of situations into a simple and well thought out execution.
