Kerry Saes. 

Chief Operating Officer
People-first. Purpose-driven. Performance-focused.
With a career spanning decades across Melbourne and Sydney, Kerry brings depth, integrity and genuine connection to everything she does. As COO, she leads with a clear vision: to build high-performing teams that thrive in culture, capability and collaboration.

Kerry’s approach to recruitment and leadership goes far beyond matching skills to roles. She partners closely with business leaders to understand their values, goals and long-term ambitions, ensuring every hire contributes to sustainable success. Her consultative, values-led style has earned her a reputation as a trusted advisor and mentor; someone who listens first, challenges constructively and always delivers with purpose.

Across her career, Kerry has built and led top-performing teams, launched new business divisions and developed consultants to reach their full potential. Her focus remains steady: driving growth, nurturing partnerships and creating environments where people feel empowered to do their best work.

Outside of work, Kerry swaps strategy for stillness. A qualified yoga teacher, she finds balance on the mat (or in a Pilates studio), enjoys exploring boutique stores in search of her next great outfit, and unwinds with a chilli margarita in hand.
