This is a rare and genuinely exciting leadership opportunity. Reporting to the Board and working closely with the Chair, you will lead the
delivery of BMN’s 2025–2028 Strategic Plan while helping shape the future direction of Victoria’s health technologies ecosystem.
Working at the intersection of industry, government, investment and policy, you will bring people together, influence conversations that
matter and help ensure Victoria remains a globally competitive hub for health innovation, commercialisation and manufacturing.
Day to day, you will:
This is not a traditional corporate CEO role.
There is no large bureaucracy and no distance from the operational elements. You will be hands-on, connected and genuinely present.

together around a shared vision for Victoria’s health technologies sector. To apply https://brookerconsulting.com.au/position-description/
The association sector is in the middle of a leadership handover.
Across Australia and New Zealand, CEOs and Executive Directors are moving on. Some are retiring. Some have gone to larger organisations.
Some have left because the relationship with their Board ran out of puff. The reasons vary, but the movement is noticeable, and Boards are
appointing replacements.
The encouraging part is the calibre of the people coming in. Many are genuinely well suited to the job — capable executives with strong
records behind them. A good number are stepping into an association CEO role for the first time.
Most associations can provide a long list of membership benefits. They may include professional development, advocacy, networking, industry information, events, resources, accreditation, discounts and access to specialist advice. However, a list of benefits does not necessarily explain why someone makes the decision to join.
While every Board is different, the same governance issues appear time and again. One of the most common is allowing one person’s behaviour
to dominate the Board table.
Almost every Board has experienced it at some point. One director who seems to consume more time and energy than everyone else combined.
How we help membership based, not-for-profit associations now and into the future.
