Life and career

Jim Moroney was born on 17 December 1898 in Bochara, Victoria.[2] For schooling, he attended St Patrick's College, Ballarat.[2]

Moroney began his Commonwealth public service career in 1916, in Melbourne as a clerk at the Prime Minister's Department.[2] He went on to work in the Department of Markets and Migration, the Department of Commerce and the Department of Commerce and Agriculture.[2]

In February 1956, Moroney was appointed Secretary of the Department of Primary Industry.[3][4] He stayed in the position until 1962, when he was appointed to a three year term as chairman of the Wheat Board.[5] At the Wheat Board, under Moroney's leadership, the board successfully disposed of three record harvests and Moroney was personally responsible for some of the large wheat sale contracts.[6]

Moroney died of cancer in Canberra on 30 August 1965, aged 66.[2][7]
