Our Team

A descendant of the Nyungar and Mirning peoples, Gail spent decades across government, mining, tourism, employment and governance, witnessing the same pattern. Plenty of talk about diversity. Workplaces that were still unsafe. She set out to change it.

She built ventures rooted in her own country around Esperance, then distilled three decades of practice into Indiji Corp. Today, some of the country’s largest organisations bring her in to move their people beyond awareness. She delivers the program herself, in the room, alongside Traditional Owners. The discipline is deliberate. That is why the change lasts.

Mark runs the operational and financial side of the business. It is work that rarely gets seen, yet it is the reason the rest of the work can happen.

The finances. The operations. The systems that keep everything moving. He is the steady hand that holds it all together, quietly, so the team out front can focus on the work in the room. If Mark stepped away, it would show quickly.

He brings around 25 years of business experience to the role. That foundation gives the delivery side confidence, knowing the ground beneath it is solid.

Renee came to cultural capability work through years in government and corporate environments. She saw how organisations operated when cultural understanding was absent, and what changed when it was applied with intent.

Her career has spanned remote, rural and urban settings. She has built culturally safe programs in each, learning to read the room differently depending on where the work lands. That range is rare.

At Indiji Corp, Renee leads training and development. Her focus is practical. Build capability. Measure whether it holds. Ensure communities lead the solutions, not just appear in them.

A Yamatji Wongatha man with ties to Country from Geraldton through the mid-west to the Eastern Goldfields. A solid family foundation underpins his role. So does broad experience across state government, mining and construction, and a long period mentoring young Aboriginal men with the Clontarf Foundation.

Each experience taught him how organisations actually work and where culture is lost within them. That is what he draws on now.

What drives him is change, particularly witnessing shifts in attitudes towards Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Outside work, Sentana is a proud father and grandfather. Those roles matter as much as his career.

A proud Yued Noongar man from Whadjuk country, Jamahl has built his cultural knowledge over a lifetime. Through language classes, cultural camps and years of listening to Elders and family, he carries a grounded understanding of what it means to hold Aboriginal identity in contemporary Australia.
That understanding is not academic. It comes from lived experience and a commitment to learning that has never wavered.
At Indiji Corp, he brings that lived knowledge into the room. His focus is practical. He helps people leave more informed, more respectful, and more confident about walking alongside Aboriginal people and communities.

Nathan, a Pakana man from Devonport, Paranaple, is descended from Mannalargenna, leader of the Pairrebeenne and Trawlwoolway clans of the northeastern Lutruwita coastal plains. On his mother’s side, he carries French, German and English heritage. His path began in Tasmania, a context distinct from the mainland, where cultural knowledge was held closely and shared with fewer.

Community shaped his work from the start. He entered the field through the Community Development Employment Program, building relationships across northern Tasmania, and through his time at the Tiagarra Cultural Centre and what is now the Six Rivers Aboriginal Corporation. In government roles across the region, he supported Indigenous employment and training pathways and helped families confirm their lineage.

In 2009, he moved to Perth and continued as an employment and recruitment specialist, supporting Indigenous apprentices across the region. He then moved into the mining sector as a trainer and assessor and rose to lead learning and development.

Nathan walks confidently in two worlds, drawing on both to bridge understanding as culture continues to resurge.

“I have spent my life moving between two worlds, and I use both to bring people closer. This work lets me stand for the next generation, strengthen our cultural voice, and tell the truth about our history. When communities understand each other, they start to walk side by side. That is what I am here to do.”

Koodah, a Noongar man and Elder of the Wiileman clan, is committed to reconnecting Aboriginal people with their culture, community and land. His life has been shaped by the Stolen Generation and the generational trauma of family separation. That experience drives his purpose: to light the spirit within and help people heal.

A Wadjuk Ballardong man, Carl’s commitment to cultural advocacy began long before his 22 years in mining. He has worked with Aboriginal and Youth Hostels and across culturally diverse regions with the Noongar Patrol. That grounding in both community and industry shapes how he brings the work to life.
