3x Olympic Gold Medallist
10 x Canoe Slalom World Champion
Grant Thornton Australia Brand Ambassador
At 28, Jessica was named the greatest paddler of all time in canoe slalom, overtaking the individual records previously held by her parents.
Coached by her mum from the start, she is now the most decorated athlete in canoe slalom history. Jess holds 6 Olympic medals, 51 World Cup gold medals and 10 World Championship titles. In July 2024, she competed in her fourth Olympic Games in Paris.
Out of the water, Jess is deeply connected to her community, an advocate for females in sport, passionate about the environment and a lifelong learner.
Jessica’s skilled navigation of the whitewater, adaptation to rapidly changing conditions and intelligent negotiation of upstream and downstream challenges resonates deeply with our services and CARE values and purpose. To us, Jess embodies ‘Reach for Remarkable’, our commitment to genuinely care for each other, our clients and communities that leads to delivering a strikingly different experience.
Reach for Remarkable can be delivered through proven expertise, principled execution and personalised experience. Known as the greatest paddler of all time, Jess’ disciplined approach to training and competition shows integrity and dedication to her craft as well as precision in skill and performance. Her extraordinary achievements in canoe slalom are a reflection of her individual efforts and the support from her coach and team – highlighting the importance of having the right team around you to achieve success.
Caring for the community is equally as important. Water is at the centre of her discipline, so Jess actively supports caring for the environment. She also gives back to her community, dedicating time to work with kids and grow the love of her sport. This aligns with our commitment to supporting our communities, particularly the development of our younger generation, as well as providing opportunity for us to encourage positive climate action for a better future.
In and out of the water, Jess’ unwavering grit and grace inspire us to Reach for Remarkable in everything we do.
Owners, shareholders and regulators alike expect more from the auditing and financial reporting of a business.
Wherever you are in your business lifecycle, your tax profile, obligations and incentives are unique to your organisation, industry, operations, locations, even your future plans.
Whether your organisation’s footprint is global, or you operate predominantly in Australia, there can be multiple risks to your business both internally and externally.
Complex legal proceedings, financial disputes and investigations are increasingly common and can prove a distraction to businesses and their leaders in driving strategy and achieving outcomes.
Deals are most often a business-changing milestone in your organisation’s lifecycle and life-changing for individual owners.
Accessing funding for your business – or unlocking capital within it – is important not only to the day-to-day function of your organisation but also your growth.
A number of reasons and factors could see your business heading towards insolvency. Some come with little warning, others with a bit more notice. It could be a poor decision internally, an external stakeholder issue or relationship breakdown, even a worldwide crisis.
Causes of financial distress can be internal – like underquoted contractual commitments – or external – for instance, changes to the demand or supply side of a business resulting from changed economic circumstances, such as COVID-19. In many cases, it is a combination of both.
Private businesses are the engine room of the Australian economy. They cover all sectors, employ millions of people, and are key to Australia’s reputation for stable, quality goods and services both domestically and internationally.
Having a considered and informed ESG response has never been more important for all organisations as we are seeing awareness of the elements of ESG continue to expand leading to greater stakeholder needs, increased demands for transparency, and changes to reporting requirements.
To realise your ambitions and see real growth in your business, you must take a holistic and practical approach to your strategy.
