Career Journey
Career Story
To continue expanding my portfolio of Fractional and Advisory roles, leveraging the breadth of my leadership experience across Australia and international markets. Drawing on my background in corporate leadership and consulting, I am looking to support organisations across a range of disciplines, including Sales, Marketing, General Management, People & Culture, Corporate Affairs, and Communications, helping them drive growth, strengthen capability, and manage change.
In time, I also intend to transition back into a senior full-time leadership role with an Australian-based organisation or the Australian headquarters of a global company, where I can apply this multi-market expertise to deliver strategic value on a larger scale.
