Former NSW premier Gladys Berejiklian has a new job

Former New South Wales premier Gladys Berejikian is joining the executive team at Optus.

Ms Berejiklian has been appointed as the Managing Director of Enterprise, Business, and Institutional.

She resigned from government last September amid an investigation by the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) into any 'breach of public trust'.

Ms Berejiklian will start at Optus on February 28.

Ms Berejiklian been back in the headlines this month after a leaked text message said to be between her and an unnamed current Liberal minister during which the Prime Minister was described as "a horrible, horrible person", a "fraud" and "a complete psycho".

Speaking on Today last week, Mr Morrison said he had not spoken to the former NSW Premier since he was asked about the message at the National Press Club event.
