The CAA 2026 Women in Leadership Symposium

Page 1


The Council of Ambulance Authorities (CAA) is a not-for-profit national charity and operates as the peak body for the Australian, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea ambulance sectors.

Founded in 1962, the CAA was created to provide an opportunity for senior leaders to network, share ideas and information, and advocate on the ambulance sector’s behalf. The CAA’s members learn from each other based on experience, research, and a collective desire to continuously improve patient care and outcomes.

The2026CAA

Women in Leadership Symposium

Research shows that on average, men apply for a job whenthey meet only 60% of thequalifications, but women apply only if they meet 100% of them 1

Amongst all CAA members, women make up 53% of the workforce2, but these numbers are not reflected in management and executive roles, with approximately one third of these roles occupied by women.

We believe that the Ambulance sector has a large pool of hidden talent - women currently in leadership roles or who aspire to be leaders but are unsure about how to take that next step in their careers.

The Women in Leadership Symposium will provide attendees with practical skills, tools, perspectives and takeaway tips to help these women take the next step.

At the conclusion of the Symposium, we will be announcing the CAA Women in Leadership Scholarship recipient.

We invite you to meet and network with some of the Australasian Ambulance sector's most talented women in person at the CAA Women in Leadership Symposium and partner with us to make this journey to equality a reality.
