Melissa King states, “ I was first introduced to the WhiteHawk management team and their unique virtual and online business approach when WhiteHawk undertook a risk review of the cyber defences of Surf Life Saving Australia in 2017. I am keen to help WhiteHawk expand its reach and impact, with both business and government in Australia and globally.”
