Ambulance Tasmania Chief Executive, Jordan Emery, has stepped down from the organisation’s top job to take up a CEO role with Ambulance Victoria.
Minister for Health, Jacquie Petrusma, congratulated Mr Emery (pictured) on his new role and thanked him for his valuable contribution to Ambulance Tasmania.
“Jordan Emery is a passionate leader who has continued to push cultural transformation throughout Ambulance Tasmania, prioritising the wellbeing of his staff and volunteers who he values so highly,” Minister Petrusma said.
“During Mr Emery’s 3.5 years with Ambulance Tasmania, he has overseen the service to provide high-quality health care to Tasmanians.
“Mr Emery has also overseen the implementation of the Government’s Transfer of Care Procedure, which has been instrumental in getting our paramedics out of the hospital quicker, and back into the community helping people where they belong.
“On top of that, he has driven the growth of staff and teams across various areas in Ambulance Tasmania, and the completion of significant ambulance station upgrades including the superstations in Glenorchy and Burnie.”
Mr Emery will finish with Ambulance Tasmania on 30 May. Executive Director of Operations, Michelle Baxter, will act as Chief Executive while an extensive recruitment process takes place.
