AI is here, and it’s moving at lightning speed—$115 billion of opportunity in Australia alone. In this episode, Georgie Hubbard sits down with Katherine Boiciuc, Chief Technology Officer at EY Oceania, to unpack how AI is transforming our world and how you can win in this new game. From upskilling for 200,000 new jobs to breaking the gender gap in tech, Katherine drops a blueprint for thriving in the AI era.

Katherine brings over two decades of tech leadership to the table, having spent 20 years at Telstra, where she rose to an executive role driving global digital transformations for enterprise clients across 20 countries. A self-described “futurist” and technologist, she’s since held transformative roles, including Digital Transformation Lead at Viva Energy and CTO at Maximus International, before landing at EY in 2024. With an MBA from Deakin University and a passion for ethical AI, she’s now steering EY’s Oceania region to harness cutting-edge tech—like generative AI and advanced computing—while championing diversity and human-centric innovation. Known for her bold, imaginative approach, Katherine’s a keynote speaker and one of Australia’s go-to voices on the future of work.

We dive into the real stakes—why diversity isn’t just nice-to-have but mission-critical, how businesses are rethinking jobs (not replacing them), and what skills will set you apart in the next five years. Whether you’re in tech, eyeing a pivot, or just want to future-proof your career, this convo is your wake-up call and playbook rolled into one.
