The Governance of Cradle Coast Water is derived from the Corporatisation Principles for Local Government Business Activities, on which the Rules of Cradle Coast Water have been based.
It is formed by members and their representatives (shareholders), directors (The Board) and the C.E.O. (Board Member - Management).

The Representatives are appointed by the participating Councils and exercise one vote each on behalf of their councils at general meetings, and/ or the annual general meeting.

Directors

The Board is charged with the responsibility to direct the affairs of Cradle Coast Water in a manner consistent with the requirements of the corporatisation model for government business enterprises, the Charter and the Corporate Plan. Unless the Cradle Coast Water Rules say otherwise, Directors have the same duties and are to exercise the same degree of care, diligence and good faith as Directors of a corporation subject to the Corporations Law.
The Board appoints a Chief Executive Officer to be responsible for the administration and operation of Cradle Coast Water.
