Mr Broadhead has a focus of systems development combined with corporate governance with the goal of continual improvement for both the individual and the organisation. His most recent achievement is the successful implementation of an electronic rostering system across the organisation. In a previous role, Mr Broadhead was involved with the Temora Aviation Museum. The museum was established on the site of the 10 Elementary Flying Training school, to pay tribute to the Airservice men and women who served in WWII. Mr Broadhead was delighted when he became acquainted with Len Marjason, a RSL LifeCare resident who trained at Temora during WWII and was a captain at Bomber command, flying 30 missions over Europe. Having played the bagpipes since the age of 10, a highlight of his year now are the annual ANZAC and Remembrance Day services. Here, he can contribute with his pipes, to say thank you to those who served Australia during war time. Mark's father was a Lieutenant Colonel in the Army Reserve and his grandfather served in New Guinea in WWII. With this military heritage, Mark considers RSL LifeCare an ideal place to work and 'continue in the ANZAC spirit' Mr Broadhead is married with three daughters and loves to go camping and bike riding with his family. He is a member of the Balmoral Beach Club and participates in ocean swimming events on Saturdays, rain, hail or shine. Mark is also the "club piper" and pipes at the biggest race of the year, the Jack Cox memorial trophy. Jack Cox was a club member who died on the Burma Railway as a P.O.W. in 1943 and this race is the oldest 1,500m swimming race in Australia. Mark also lectures New Testament at the evening bible college at his local church, where he has been involved for 15 years.
