Professionals in International Trade (PIT) is a not-for-profit members association and networking group based in Australia. Our members represent and support the trade and investment activities of overseas companies in the Australian and New Zealand markets.
PIT is an officially registered association under NSW Fair Trading. It is managed by an Executive Board and Committee Members who support specific operational aspects of the association. Board Members are elected and Committee Members are recruited by each Head of Committee every year. They all agree to meet and communicate regularly to oversee the effective running of the association. We are always looking for individuals to support our Committees and initiatives, feel free to contact us if you’re interested to know more.
