Pretoria - The Board of Trustees of the Independent Development Trust (IDT) is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr Sifiso Nsibande as the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Independent Development Trust, effective 1 October 2026, following the successful conclusion of a comprehensive and competitive recruitment and selection process.
Having served as Acting Chief Executive Officer for almost a year, Mr Nsibande successfully guided the organisation through a critical period, providing stable and strategic leadership while strengthening governance, enhancing organisational performance, rebuilding stakeholder confidence and ensuring the continued implementation of the IDT's mandate. His appointment provides continuity, stability and stability, positioning the organisation to build on the progress achieved during his tenure.
Mr Nsibande is a seasoned finance, governance and infrastructure executive with more than two decades of impactful leadership experience across the public and private sectors. Prior to joining the IDT, he served as Chief Financial Officer of the Construction Industry Development Board (CIDB), where he played a key role in strengthening the organisation's financial sustainability and governance. Under his financial leadership, the CIDB consistently achieved unqualified audit outcomes, culminating in a clean audit for the 2023/24 and 2025/2026 financial years, while significantly improving the organisation's financial position through disciplined fiscal management and sound governance.
Ms. Zimbini Hill, Chairperson of the IDT Board of Trustees, remarked, “The appointment of our new CEO comes at a critical stage for the entity. She said that “Mr Nsibande’s leadership as Acting CEO has already resulted in tangible improvements in the organisation and his successful track record at CIDB, particularly in delivering a clean audit, gives us every confidence that the IDT is on the path to achieving similar results.”
The Chairperson extended her sincere appreciation to the Board of Trustees for its leadership and stewardship throughout the appointment process, and to the Acting Chief Executive Officer for accepting the secondment in support of the organisation’s continuity and stability.
The Board is confident that Mr Nsibande's proven record of achieving clean governance, strengthening financial sustainability and driving institutional performance positions him well to lead the Independent Development Trust into its next chapter. His appointment signals the organisation's continued commitment to sound governance, improved audit outcomes, operational excellence and the delivery of sustainable social infrastructure that improves the lives of all South Africans.
