Aug 2012 - Apr 2015
Took on established local corporate health business post-acquisition by parent company (Aspen Medical Group). Strategic acquisition targeting corporate health services in booming resource sector where Aspen Medical was outsourcing significant services (and losing margin) on major projects in WA and NT. Strategy was to learn quickly the business through existing Federal, State and Territory contracts, while growing through acquisitions to provide services nationally to Aspen Medical and target existing service providers. Successfully completed two acquisitions (Sydney and Perth), established national network of independent partner clinics, introduced online booking systems. Success of venture impacted by resource sector turn down.
