Jason has also gained experience from roles in restructuring, advisory, venture capital, corporate development and corporate finance in Australia and overseas. He holds a Bachelor of Commerce (Accounting), a Master of Business Administration (MBA), is a Fellow of Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand (FCA) and a member of the Australian Institute of Company Directors (MAICD).
