Our Staff

Over the last 12 months, we have adopted smarter ways of working that provides greater flexibility and life balance to our fantastic staff.

Breast Cancer Trials has three departments of research, fundraising and business.

While our head office is located in Newcastle NSW, a number of new staff have joined our team remotely, working from other locations around Australia.
