The Women Power Brokers In Australian Business

Because of its egalitarian society, Australia has provided opportunities for success in business to both men and women

. Women though are in bit of handicap, as many often choose to tend the home and the children aside from having careers. The following is a list of women who are the best in their business and are able to live well-rounded lives while living Down Under.

Julia Ross. Unlike many who give up at the lowest point in their lives, Ross formed her company and became a success in her business. She founded Ross Human Directions during her divorce, a pregnancy and limited opportunities because of her circumstances. Because of the limitations, she instead established her recruitment and HR services company to provide opportunities and choices not only in Australia but also overseas in countries such as the United Kingdom, New Zealand, Ireland, Singapore and Hong Kong. The company is amongst the biggest ones in the world with a market capital of $32 million. From her company, she was able to amass her fortune, earning an estimated $392.9 million since its inception to be acclaimed as among the most successful female businesspersons in the country.

Naomi Milgrom. Fashion has always been the realm of women and amongst the most successful fashion companies Down Under is the Sussan Group. Her family had a fashion company but under her helmship, after buying out her siblings and parents, she was able to expand the company to 550 stores and 4,500 employees. Her brand names include the House of Sussan, Suzanne Grae and Sportsgirl. With her success comes the money and she is currently estimated to be worth around $496 million. Aside from being a retailing giant, she is also one of the powerbrokers in the Australian fashion business.

Jan Cameron. Born in Tasmania, Jan Cameron started her business empire with the creation of an outdoor clothing company named Kathmandu. The success of this venture bore fruit as she sold the company for $300 million. She then moved into retailing and has changed the landscape of the industry with her new company Retail Adventures. This company operates chain stores such as Chickenfeed, Sam's Warehouse, Crazy Clark's, My Place, It's Home and Go-Lo. She now employs 8,000 individuals and operates 330 stores earning for her company nearly $1 billion in retail. Her business acumen has not limited her to just operate in Australia, as she has expanded her business in Canada, United States, United Kingdom and New Zealand. Aside from her hectic schedule, she also has spent her time and money for animal rights and other philanthropic endeavors.
