Jennifer Durante to head comms at NFP organisation

Jennifer Durante has commenced a new chapter as Head of Communications at SpinalCure Australia. She continues her career in the not-for-profit space after almost a decade at Melanoma Institute Australia, most recently as Director, Community & Engagement.

Backed by over 30 years' experience, Jennifer started her career in journalism before swapping to comms. She's spent two decades operating her own communications consultancy and has served clients across various sectors, including government, health, and construction.

Jennifer said: “I am delighted to join the SpinalCure Australia team at a pivotal time for the groundbreaking Australian-led research into finding a cure for spinal cord injuries.

“Raising community, government and philanthropic awareness about this critical area of medical and scientific research, as well as the extraordinary vision of SpinalCure Australia which is fuelling this research, will help change the future for those with spinal cord injuries.”
