Background

About Janelle Codrington

Bringing over a decade of dedicated senior leadership, strategic change management, and robust professional and organisational development expertise from dynamic international education environments, including a highly successful tenure in Hong Kong. As a proven leader, particularly as an IB Diploma Programme Coordinator, I've driven significant academic outcomes and curriculum reform while also fostering a deep-seated culture of continuous growth. For six years, I passionately led professional development initiatives, designing and implementing strategic, data-driven systems – from online applications and budget oversight with key visualizations for leadership, to rigorous follow-up processes ensuring PD translates into tangible school-wide impact and builds internal capacity. This comprehensive experience has solidified my strengths in strategic thinking, connecting organisational vision to actionable plans, system design, data-informed decision-making, strategic resource management, collaborative team leadership, and facilitating effective cultural change. I excel at navigating complex environments and building capability within an organisation. Returning to Australia (Queensland based), I am eager to apply my extensive experience and passion for organisational effectiveness and people growth to a new challenge. I am seeking an impactful management or leadership role where I can contribute significantly to strategic goals, lead change initiatives, and drive professional development and organisational performance. I am particularly interested in opportunities within education management (non-teaching), Learning & Development, Organisational Development, project management, or change leadership roles where my big-picture perspective, system-thinking, and proven ability to build capability can make a real difference. Passionate about effective leadership, fostering a learning culture, and leveraging experience for sustainable organisational success.
