After four foundational years at the helm, the Honourable Wade Noonan – a pioneer of social procurement in Victoria and passionate advocate of inclusive employment, announced he will retire from the Jobsbank Board, stepping down from his role as Chair.
Just weeks before COVID-19 swept the world, Ann-Maree Colborne stepped into the CEO role at Marriott Support Services, one of Melbourne’s leading suppliers of disability employment.

Three years later, it looks like they’ve made it.

“I would interview for positions in retail that I really wanted but I didn’t get them. I always asked for feedback and kept getting the same response – that I was the perfect candidate, but they couldn’t offer me the job. It made me wonder what the problem was.”
Karina started her Jobsbank journey a few weeks ago and is enthusiastic of what lies ahead. “I am here to expand Jobsbank’s organisation and business partnering network and help that network build its social procurement capability and capacity. I aim to help our partners use their purchasing power and employment approaches to create meaningful opportunities for all.”
