The active health and exercise industry’s peak association, AUSactive, has today announced nominations are now open for its 2023 Board Elections ahead of the Annual General Meeting on 20 November 2023.
This year, AUSactive is seeking two (2) x Business Member Directors, with one of these positions being allocated specifically to an independently owned business member – this is to ensure we have representations across the entire industry. The Elected Directors will have a three-year term.

- Experience in the health sector
- Experience working as or with allied health providers
- Experience in developing policy and advocacy positions to shift political party and government policy, which will ideally include strong relationships with current Federal and State politicians
- Fulfill our aim for diversity and inclusion in our Board make up, including a balance of board continuity and refresh, along with continued gender diversity, cultural / ethnic background, geographic and all-abilities
