THE National Kidney Foundation (NKF) on Wednesday announced the appointment of Tim Oei, 58, as chief executive officer with effect from Sept 4.
He is currently the CEO of AWWA, a local non-profit organisation that provides community-based programmes and services to a range of demographics from children to the elderly.
NKF said that a five-member board search committee reviewed more than 50 candidates over five months to arrive at the final selection.
Chairman Koh Poh Tiong said: "Mr Oei's vast experience in the voluntary welfare sector will help bring the NKF into a new phase of development, carrying out the foundation's mission of serving the needs of needy kidney patients in Singapore."
Last November, NKF terminated former CEO Edmund Kwok over a "personal indiscretion" involving a male staff member which had nothing to do with the stewardship of the foundation's finances.
