Challenging the status quo

Hosted by:

April 30, 2018

– Members' Lunch with Craig Drummond, CEO, Medibank 

Challenging the status quo is not unusual for Craig Drummond, CEO of Medibank. Sometimes, it's all about considering issues with a different perspective, but will Craig be able to reform the rising costs of medical insurance?  

Prior to joining Medibank, Craig was Group Executive Finance and Strategy of National Australia Bank Limited (NAB), having joined NAB in November 2013. At NAB, his focus was the strategic realignment and repositioning of the bank, its balance sheet and its performance management systems. Earlier in his career, Craig joined JBWere, a leading Australian stockbroker and wealth manager, in equity research and subsequently held roles including Chief Operating Officer, Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of Goldman Sachs JBWere.

Craig is a director of the Geelong Football Club Limited and the Florey Institute of Neuroscience and Mental Health. He is also a member of the Finance Committee of the Ian Potter Foundation Limited.
