Our Board

Aboriginal Sea Company Board

The Aboriginal Sea Company Board of Directors is made up of equal representatives from the Northern Land Council, Tiwi Land Council and Anindilyakwa Land Council. Each Director brings their unique understanding of fisheries and business management from a traditional aspect, as well as an understanding of non-Indigenous commercial practices.

The oral history on management of the seas and intertidal zones stems back thousands of years, well before the Macassans trading and colonial settlement took place. It is fortunate this knowledge has been protected to date and the company is grateful that it can now utilise and benefit from Board members’ knowledge to sustainably manage sea country.

The Board views clear, transparent and frequent communication to all stakeholders as being critical to ASC’s success and a reflection of its values – Respect, Integrity and Leadership.

Through the combined cultural and business knowledge and expertise of the ASC Board of Directors, the ASC will be guided through a complex operating environment while upholding and protecting the culture and traditions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.
