With a strong background in strategy, risk, and capital management and in leading change and capability development, Jason has over 25 years corporate and operational experience in a variety of sectors including energy, resources, property, agriculture, and financial services (at Elders he was responsible for the corporate oversight of its banking and insurance businesses).
