Ms Alabaster will commence in the role on 27 October 2025, leading the management of the city’s most prominent parklands, including Roma Street Parkland and Victoria Park/Barrambin.
Juliet has served as Chief Operating Officer at Brisbane Economic Development Agency (BEDA) since 2021, where she helped drive investment, attract visitors and elevate Brisbane’s profile nationally and internationally.
With more than three years on the City Parklands Board, Juliet will bring direct experience and insight into shaping the city’s most-loved places and Brisbane’s reputation as Australia’s lifestyle capital.
Her appointment is a significant gain for City Parklands and marks the conclusion of a highly successful chapter at BEDA.
City Parklands was established by Brisbane City Council in 2013 to manage the city’s most popular parks.
Millions of people visit the City Parklands’ managed Roma Street Parkland, Victoria Park and events at Post Office Square each year.
Juliet’s appointment as CEO of City Parklands means two-thirds of Brisbane City Council’s subsidiaries will be led by women.
