The Admin Avenues Podcast

From fundraises and M&A to COVID, downturns and rapid pivots, Janice Parker has seen the full tech rollercoaster. Janice has worked for some of the largest tech firms globally both here in Australia and in London, UK.  In this episode, Janice shares what it’s really like operating as a remote-first, strategic EA in high-growth environments, why community matters, and how she’s thinking about the road ahead as AIOP Victoria Division President (including a sneak peek at 2026).

What we cover in this episode:
  • Startups → scale-ups: Lessons from hypergrowth and change as an Executive Assistant 
  • Remote-first reality: time zones, async rhythm, boundaries and trust. 
  • Working 100% remote: Is it really all it’s cracked up to be? 
  • Network & community: Why it’s so important to have an admin network and be part of a community
  • What’s next for AIOP VIC and early plans for 2026
