Parker, who will join the agency from the beginning of July, has extensive experience in economics and public administration.
“As a senior Commonwealth public servant, Mr Parker has had responsibility for climate change policy and a long professional involvement in energy markets and regulatory matters,” said acting chair Jody Swirepik.
“He is widely respected across many industries, having worked on some of the country’s most critical issues over the last two decades.
“We’re very pleased to welcome a strong pair of hands who has a track record of driving effective implementation and managing complex reforms.”
The agency also welcomes the reappointment of Anne Brown and Virginia Malley as members of the Regulator for three years.
Parker replaces Chloe Munro, who completed her five-year term on 31 March 2017.
