CJ Baldry Adams is an award-winning strategist, governance specialist, and regional systems reform leader who serves as the Business Development Manager at Vantage NSW.

In this role, CJ leads the development and integration of corporate business systems, internal risk management, human resource frameworks, and compliance-aligned operational processes, ensuring the company remains both future-focused and industry-compliant as it scales.

With a portfolio spanning strategic planning, project management, internal customer engagement, and risk mitigation, CJ is responsible for aligning Vantage NSW’s growth with best-practice governance and business resilience. Her ability to translate complex regulatory frameworks into practical tools enables the team to deliver consistent, safe, and high-performing outcomes both internally and on-farm.

CJ’s career began in aeromedical retrieval and frontline healthcare, working with the Royal Flying Doctor Service and CareFlight across Australia’s most remote regions. These high-stakes roles forged her reputation for operational discipline, inclusive leadership, and systems integrity under pressure, qualities that now define her approach across governance, workforce, and enterprise development.

As the partner of a veteran, CJ is a passionate advocate for veteran inclusion and economic empowerment, working to position former ADF personnel as business owners, board members, and leaders, not just employees.

At Vantage NSW, CJ brings this same ethos to her role: building scalable systems, embedding ethical governance, and ensuring the region’s businesses grow stronger from the inside out.
