Over the past decade, his leadership has helped grow FSA from two sites to more than 180,000 occasions of service across 35 locations, while maintaining Client Satisfaction (CSAT) above 90%. This foundation positions FSA strongly as we move toward our 2030 goal of exceeding 200,000 occasions of service and continuing to deliver innovative, multidisciplinary care”.   Mr Whiting added, “Gary’s leadership has played a pivotal role in shaping the values‑driven, research‑informed culture that defines FSA today. Together with our dedicated staff and leadership teams, he has helped build a high‑performing organisation with Employee Satisfaction (ESAT) consistently above 85% and nationally recognised innovative practice. The Board is confident that his continued stewardship will support the successful delivery of our 2030 Strategic Plan.”   Upon executing the Managing Director and Company Secretary appointment, FSA is acknowledging Gary’s successful 34year national, international directorship and community service career.   In response, Mr Gary Jackson said, “One-In All-In, to serve and work alongside FSA staff and community is a privilege, living what we believe in, and a result of a collective staff humanitarian focus with all community cultures. Through community respect, listening, engagement we prioritise health, love and family for staff, children, young people, families and adults. It’s incredibly humbling, an inspiration and honour to work for diversity, staff and community purpose, improving health and wellbeing every day.” Ends ###   About Family Services Australia (FSA)   Family Services Australia (FSA) has been recognized as the 8th ranked Most Innovative Companies in Australia and New Zealand by the Australian Financial Review (AFR) - Government, Education and Not for Profit sectors.
