Previously a Phillip Island resident, having children at Cowes & Newhaven schools and herself coaching netball at the Phillip Island Football Netball Club, Jodie has remained a regular at the island even after moving to Melbourne for her career, so it was not a hard decision to make when the option to return and share her experience with the team was on offer. An ability to develop people and set the foundations to fast-track growth has seen Jodie undertake a variety of roles with great success, including her tenure as a General Manager and Officer in Effective control which saw her become one of the driving forces in the transformation of a Real Estate business of 20 people into one of the largest in South-East Melbourne boasting over 70 team members across multiple sites and winning numerous awards. An ability to analyse business quickly and pinpoint areas for improvement, along with her solution-focused thinking, and instinct for streamlining processes and generating productivity, saw Jodie become regularly sought after by her peers to share her knowledge and add value, this demand eventually grew to the stage that she created her Consultancy business. Training, guiding and consulting with almost every brand in the Real Estate industry has seen Jodie’s experience and knowledge fast track extensively. She was then offered a role as Chief Operating Officer within a large organisation operating Australia-wide. With her immediate family based in Wonthaggi and Cowes, and strong ties to the community, Jodie is thrilled to have the opportunity to move back home and share her industry knowledge. Combining local knowledge, proven real estate expertise, and a strong focus on client experience, (which is at the core of every successful business), Jodie is well-placed to lead the Barry Plant Phillip Island, San Remo, Wonthaggi & Inverloch team into the future.
