John Jeffries

VIC TEAM

John brings a unique and fascinating blend of Christian leadership experience through serving in a variety of contexts for several decades.

As the long-term CEO of CBM Australia, he grew a small mission agency to one of Australia’s largest and most respected international Christian NGOs.

He has extensive governance experience from serving on the boards of several Australian and International NGOs working in disability, medical research and community housing. He as chaired the board of his local church for several years.

John’s experience gives him salient insights into the many pressures pastors and leaders face as they seek to grow their church or organization. He works closely with leaders to minimize their risk of burnout whilst leading in complexity.

Based in Hawthorn Victoria, John is a qualified Pastoral Supervisor and supports pastors and leaders throughout Australia.

In 2014 he was awarded an OAM for his services to the community, particularly people with a disability.
