“No matter how many clients I have, I make sure to call each one personally every quarter. It’s a chance to not only update them on their portfolio, but also check on how they’re doing personally”

With a deep understanding of the human factors that drive business growth, Christina King specialises in strategies that transform workforce potential into measurable outcomes. By focusing on quantitative insights, such as productivity gains and cost savings, over qualitative assumptions, she helps organisations align people strategies with their broader strategy.
Drawing on 25 years of experience in HR and workforce transformation, King proudly wears multiple professional hats. As a chief people officer, consultant, and non-executive director, these diverse roles give her a unique perspective on the evolving needs of business owners and leaders.
King has built and revitalised HR functions, managed mergers, acquisitions, and initial public offerings, and led culture, workforce development, safety, and change management across domestic and international markets. This has sharpened her ability to manage risk in regulated environments and drive innovation.
Bringing governance experience from boards, including Dignity Homeless Services Australia and Football Brisbane, she is a strong advocate for placing HR professionals at the board level, where their insights into workforce strategy, compliance, and culture can directly influence organisational success.
Passionate about HR professionals possessing strong commercial acumen, she believes this, coupled with a growth mindset and knowledge of organisational operations, are baseline skill sets for success.
