‘Justine has had a distinguished career leading complex organisations, including key business units of Medibank, as well as experience on the Board of Uniting Care Queensland and the Queensland Advisory Board for the Starlight Children’s Foundation. We believe her expertise will help drive Diabetes Australia forward,’ Diabetes Australia Independent President and Board Chair Dr Michael Stanford AM.
‘Justine is a leader with the skills and strategic foresight to lead the organisation through its next chapter to become an even stronger, more unified and influential organisation supporting all people living with, or at risk of, diabetes.’
Ms Cain’s major achievements with Medibank included winning and running the national $1.3 billion Garrison Health Services contract which provided the full range of health services for the Australian Defence Forces in Australia. Under her leadership, the tender grew to $2 billion over the life of the contract.
Ms Cain has led teams of more than 2500 staff, with annual revenue of more than $580 million. Leadership has spanned management of the Beyond Blue Counselling lines, National Disability Medical Assessments, National Nurse on Call and GP After Hours services, 1800 RESPECT Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault support lines and a range of mobile health and rehabilitation services delivered in homes.
She is a passionate advocate for high quality, timely and equitable access to health services, maximising the value of emerging technologies and working hand in hand with health carers and government to positively impact health outcomes. She hopes to make a positive and lasting impact on the lives of Australians living with diabetes.
‘There are 1.4 million Australians living with all types of diabetes and Diabetes Australia works hard to improve the lives of all of these people,’ Justine Cain said.
‘Diabetes is one of the major health challenges facing this country and I’m looking forward to supporting the delivery of services and programs that help people live well with diabetes.
‘Our health impacts our physical and mental wellbeing, our ability to go out and spend time with family and friends, our ability to work and enjoy hobbies. It is fundamental to how we live our lives and that’s why I’m so passionate about it.’
Ms Cain has a Bachelor of Laws and Bachelor of Science (Psychology) from ANU. She will be based in Diabetes Australia’s Brisbane office.
Welcome, Justine Cain. We are looking forward to working with you to continue to improve the lives of people living with diabetes.
