For the past twenty years, Genevieve has worked as a GP in regional Queensland, NSW and Victoria, combining clinical work with various medical educator, medico-legal, management and leadership roles.  After a non-clinical stint as general manager of education for the RACGP in 2020/21, she has returned to clinical general practice and medical education, now based in Ballarat, Victoria. She is an MDA National company director, sitting on its mutual board and works as a freelance medical educator for the Black Dog Institute, MDA National, Medcast and other organisations.

She has a Masters of Business Administration (MBA) in Leadership, and is a Graduate of the Australian Institute of Company Directors and a Fellow of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP).

Her previous positions included Principal Medical Education Advisor for the RACGP, the RACGP Queensland Censor, Chair of the RACGP Expert Committee Pre-Fellowship Education, a performance assessor for AHPRA, Associate Director of Training at North Coast GP Training and a member of MDA National’s Education Services Advisory Group (ESAG).

In 2010, Genevieve received the Arts and Health Australia Awards for Excellence in Medical Humanities and Education and in 2014 was awarded GPET’s Medical Educator of the Year (Australia wide). In 2016, she received the RACGP Queensland Chair Award for outstanding dedication and commitment to RACGP Queensland and service to the discipline of general practice.
