The Australasian College for Emergency Medicine is the peak body for training and advocacy of emergency physician specialists across Australia and New Zealand with a membership base of approx 7000.
I am responsible for a breadth of events including the Annual Scientific Meeting (ACEM's major engagement activity for the year, held nationally and internationally), biannual Winter Symposium (research meeting, held nationally and internationally) and various aspects of state based meetings. I am also responsibility for the events management of advocacy meetings and internal project based events including the launch of the Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP).
I regularly engage with and have built strong working relationships with a number of external stakeholders such as Fellows, Trainees, Minsters, Directors, Corporate Sponsors and Exhibitors and suppliers. I have also coordinate several department discussions, particularly through Education and Policy and Advocacy.
I work closely with the governance advisers to plan and execute various internal policies, terms of reference and guidelines. I provide written reports to the countless committees and the board on a regular basis.
