Board roles
Strong boards shape strong futures.
I am currently open to an additional board opportunity from a purpose-driven organisation.
Llewella Jago, Co-Founder, Rowdy
“Jo has an exceptional talent for connecting the dots and seeing the bigger picture between policy, communication, and leadership. Her counsel always means you will make smarter decisions and build stronger relationships.”
MY BOARD STRENGTHS INCLUDE:
Governance, risk and integrity
Workplace culture and ethical leadership
Purpose-driven strategy and impact
Crisis management
International and diplomatic experience
Strong networks across government, business, and the community
I currently serve as an Advisory Board Member for Future Females Australia, an organisation dedicated to empowering young women entrepreneurs and expanding opportunities for women in business across Australia. The Advisory Board supports the organisation’s growth as it builds a national presence and launches new initiatives including mentoring, masterclasses, and an online platform.
I have completed the Governance for Social Impact program through the Centre for Social Impact, as well as an Ethical Leadership course at Harvard University and Executive Ethics at the Cranlana Centre. This has elevated my expertise in how boards and leadership teams can drive purposeful and responsible change with integrity and confidence.
I am a member of Women on Boards. I actively engage in supporting women’s leadership and representation in governance.
My career has been forged at the highest levels of government, paired with a personal drive to make a positive difference in the world. At Government House, I chaired or participated in a range of key committees — including Audit, Property, IT, Security and Management — and held responsibility for governance and risk as part of my senior executive role.
If you are a purpose-driven organisation that is seeking a board member who brings strategic insights, values integrity and accountability, and aptly navigates diverse stakeholders and complex change, I may be the person you are looking for.
