David Larocca has been appointed as the new Oceania chief executive officer and regional managing partner for Ernst and Young.

EY Asia Pacific Area Managing Partner, Patrick Winter made this announcement last week.

Mr Larocca became a partner in 2006 and took over as Strategy and Transactions Managing Partner in 2016. He has been a member of the EY Oceania Executive Leadership Team for the last five years and has been an active member of several Asia-Pacific and Global leadership committees within EY.

Specialising in infrastructure, Mr Larocca has more than 25 years of experience advising government and private sector clients on major infrastructure transactions in Australia, Asia and Europe.

Prior to EY, David has held roles in the banking, corporate and professional services sectors.

Mr Larocca will take over the reins from Tony Johnson who has been CEO and Oceania Regional Managing Partner since 2014.

Mr Larocca has been instrumental in helping EY become a leading Strategy and Transactions business, working closely with Tony Johnson to oversee a number of strategic acquisitions and important hires.

Their long-standing working relationship and shared vision for the future will assist in a smooth and stable transition for EY in the region.

Mr Larocca said: We have great people at EY and I feel privileged to have been selected to lead our Firm in Oceania.

Tony will leave the EY Oceania in a fantastic position, and with a positive and distinctive culture. He has overseen a period of tremendous growth and stability.

I plan to build on that legacy and the strong momentum Tony has overseen through his leadership.

Mr Winter said Davids years of experience in the market working with some of our biggest clients while leading a diverse team of more than 800 professionals across nine offices in the fast-growing Strategy and Transactions service line, make him the perfect choice to take over the reins from Tony.

As we look to the future, EY Oceania is extremely well placed to continue to play a critical role in Asia-Pacific and as part of our global organisation.

I look forward to working with both Tony and David, as David transitions into the role and have no doubt that he will lead our Oceania business from strength to strength.
