Nisku, AB, October 5, 2023 – At the Rural Municipalities of Alberta (RMA), we’re proud to represent Alberta’s 69 counties and municipal districts as an independent association. Since 1909, we have helped rural municipalities achieve strong, effective, local government. We provide advocacy and business services, including cooperative procurement through the Canoe Procurement Group of Canada and insurance through RMA Insurance.
Our business success, on behalf of our partners, has seen incredible growth, expansion, and new opportunities. Much of this success is a result of being service-centred and working hard to expand for new opportunities by our incredible business team.
Central to this has been the senior leadership team, headed by Duane Gladden. With this success has come the continued need to leverage the energy and aspirations of our leadership team to provide agility and room for growth. It is with this exponential growth in all the RMA business services that the RMA Board of Directors has seen fit to appoint Duane to the position of CEO of RMA Group of Companies. In this new role, Duane, along with his amazing team, will continue to identify those goods and services that best serve the most important part of our team: our members.
We look forward to further success in our ventures spearheaded by Duane in this new role, along with his team, and expect they will continue do what they do best: provide our owners and key partners with exceptional opportunities.
