This year we are thrilled to be hosting Elle Roseby, Managing Director of Country Road and Trenery, and current Wesley parent, as our keynote speaker.

At Country Road, Elle has been influential in repositioning the retailer as a world-leading, responsible lifestyle brand. Her commitment to innovation and collaboration has led to brand partnerships with trusted organisations such as Oritain, Landcare Australia and the Green Building Council in recent years, while her support for First Nations allyship has resulted in an ongoing partnership between Country Road and the Darwin Aboriginal Art Fair Foundation.

Elle has inspired a culture of leading with heart at Country Road and Trenery, while guiding them to become world-class Australian brands.

Elle’s topic speaks to the 2024 UN IWD theme ‘Count Her In: Invest in Women. Accelerate Progress,’ which highlights the importance of education, employment pathways, financial services and literacy in reaching gender equality and achieving equal participation in the economy.
