Lumary welcomes Jason Collins as Senior Vice President of Strategic Corporate

Lumary is pleased to announce the expansion of its leadership team by
welcoming Jason Collins as Senior Vice President of Strategic Corporate Development.

In this new role, Mr Collins will be responsible for the development and execution of Lumary’s growth plans and for forging a stronger connection between Lumary and its customers.

Mr Collins is a highly regarded health tech industry veteran with 15 years of experience leading organisations through large-scale business transformation and delivering integrated technology solutions.

He joins Lumary from his recent tenure as Chief Information Officer (CEO) at Life Without Barriers (LWB), one of Australia’s largest charitable organisations, providing services to many communities, including disability and aged care.

Mr Collins was in charge of all aspects of technology at LWB and during
his six years with the not-for-profit, the company grew from 4,000 employees to 8,500 and Mr Collins’ tech team expanded from its initial 17 to almost 90.

As Lumary’s SVP of Strategic Corporate Development, Mr Collins’ depth of knowledge in the healthcare sector will see him contributing to product roadmaps, uncovering new opportunities that align with Lumary’s goal of accelerating growth and building strong relationships within the Lumary community.

“I want to help grow the business as much as possible while helping our
clients achieve good commercial outcomes,” says Mr Collins.

“It should always be a win-win situation. A win for Lumary is a product that empowers our customers to deliver quality person-centred care to the greatest number of people at the lowest possible cost”.

Lumary’s most recent hire is a testament to the company’s commitment to establishing a knowledgeable and experienced team of in-house industry experts to help inform product build and prioritise improvements in line with ongoing sector changes and providers’ needs.

“Jason’s appointment is significant and one of the most important hires in our business so far”, says Lumary Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Co-Founder, Joseph Mercorella.

“His extensive leadership and expertise in driving digital transformation for healthcare organisations and his understanding of technology as the enabler of this transformation is exactly the ethos of Lumary.

“It’s one of the key reasons we’ve achieved what we have in a short period of time. With Jason in this executive role, I want our customers and future customers to know that every decision we make is to better understand and support them and the people in their care”.

Mr Collins is excited to be in this new position, he said, “More than anything, I am passionate about technology and working with smart people to solve big challenges.

“What attracted me to Lumary was their sky is the limit thinking. The potential for growth and value creation is tremendous, and I’m confident that together we can reach that sky and create something truly special for our customers and the community they serve.”

Mr Collins is based in Newcastle and will work out of the Sydney office with regular trips to Lumary’s headquarters in Adelaide.
