About Amanda Southwell

I’m a strategic and people-focused engagement professional with a strong track record in partnerships, stakeholder engagement, and relationship management across the community services, carer, health, disability, international development and education sectors. I’ve led initiatives in collaboration with national and state-wide organisations, driving innovative approaches to community and strategic engagement. Known for my leadership in establishing and growing new programs, I thrive in dynamic environments where I can bring people together, build strong networks, and deliver meaningful outcomes. I’m passionate about driving change, influencing strategy, and creating space for impactful conversations—whether in personal interactions, group settings, or through lecturing and presentations. My approach is grounded in collaboration, vision, and a commitment to purpose-driven work.
