Dr Evans served as CEO of Standards Australia from October 2013 to March 2019.

In 2014 and 2015 Dr Evans was recognised as one of Australia’s 100 most influential engineers, and in 2016 she was acknowledged as one of Australia’s 100 Women of Influence.
“Dr Bronwyn Evans’ contribution and commitment to the world of standards will continue to influence both the industries that help develop standards and the people who contribute to their development. As an engineer, businesswoman and CEO, her leadership will have positive effects on generations to come. I am delighted that her hard work and contribution to Australian society has been formally recognised” said CEO of Standards Australia, Adrian O’Connell.
