Janine is a manager and facilitator who works with local governments and utility providers to engage with their customers and citizens authentically and productively.

Janine is experienced in project management, engagement design, data analysis and reporting. She is focused on delivering engagement that is insightful for both participant and client – leading to informed decision making and community support.

Janine has supported water utility and local government clients to plan and deliver multi-stage, regulated engagement programs. Through these programs, clients are supported to explore community values and expectations, and are allowed for real community influence in projects and strategic planning.

In 2024 – 25 Janine delivered three Deliberative Engagement programs for Victorian local councils. With all Council Plans now adopted, it was a delight to see the views of the community reflected heavily in the plans. It was also a pleasure to work with council staff and councillors to build relationships with the community and trust in the engagement process.

Janine has seven years of project management experience, working across multiple sectors, including the private sector, local and state government and the community housing sector. Project experience includes communications and engagements for master plans, community visions, housing policy and development, environmental policy, transport planning and major infrastructure projects.
