I am an experienced finance executive with extensive leadership, managerial and consulting expertise. I think strategically and am passionate about helping people enjoy their work. I want to make a positive difference to the organisations and people I work with and believe the key to success is looking after people and fostering cohesive team dynamics. I am empathic, compassionate, friendly and enjoy good humour (or so I am told).I recently served as Director of Finance and Corporate Services at Calvary Health Care’s two hospitals in Launceston, where I played a pivotal role in shaping strategy and operational execution, whilst leading finance, administration, purchasing, building services, catering and housekeeping.I can adapt to changing situations and new challenges, such as when I successfully steered the hospitals through the Covid era, ensuring the hospitals remained operational and financially viable during the pandemic. This included:• Generating additional revenue streams, which successfully countered the effects of reduced activity when operations were at times suspended or reduced.• Adapting supply sources and purchasing processes to ensure that relevant supplies, such as masks and protective clothing, were available when needed.• Working collaboratively with government, other hospitals and medical services.I have strong interpersonal and communication skills and enjoy dealing with complex stakeholder dynamics. As a qualified Chartered Accountant with significant experience, I bring practical knowledge in corporate finance, IT, quality assurance, and audit, demonstrating prowess in financial management, business analysis, change management and project management.
