Healix International opens new Australian office
The company has chosen Melbourne for its “strong economy, skilled workforce, and regional connectivity”
Global healthcare and risk management firm Healix International has announced the opening of a new office in Melbourne, Australia.
The new office will support the company’s plans to expand in the Asia-Pacific region, helping it to scale up its operations to meet regional demand, working alongside Healix’s existing office in New Zealand.
Healix stated that the office marked a “key step in the development of Healix International’s three-hub regional operating model” – comprised of the EMEA (Europe, the Middle East, and Africa), the Americas, and the Asia-Pacific regions.
Healix International has operated in Australia for a number of years through various partners. The firm confirmed that it would recruit locally for roles “across its security and medical teams”.
“Melbourne’s strong economy, skilled workforce, and regional connectivity make it an ideal hub for us to better serve our clients and partners as we look to build our market share,” said James Henderson, CEO of Healix International. “The city has deep expertise in key areas we care about, such as tech, professional services, and security, as we look to recruit local talent with local knowledge to fill essential positions to build a strong team.”
Henderson spoke to ITIJ in the October 2024 Assistance & Repatriation Review.
