Former South Australian Premier Jay Weatherill will shift to Perth in January to take up a new job as the chief executive of the early education arm of Rich Lister Andrew "Twiggy" Forrest's philanthropic Minderoo Foundation.
Mr Weatherill, who was one of the authors of the extensive review released in early November into the Labor Party's poor showing in the Federal election under Bill Shorten, will be at the helm of Minderoo's Thrive by Five organisation.
