Get to know: Paul Hellwege

#WeAreNorthern

Meet Paul Hellwege, Director of Digital Learning and Systems, People and Culture.

Q: Tell us about your role at Northern Health?

A: The role of Director of Digital Learning and Systems is a really exciting one. It’s a fantastic opportunity to help facilitate online education and training across the organisation. Having up-to-date, relevant and engaging online learning is a great way to assist both learners and educators in the education and training space. I’m looking forward to working with the Digital Learning team and our trainers and educators to continue to build and deliver that.

Q: What motivates you to work hard?

A: On a personal level, my family. On a professional level, I’m really passionate about inclusive and accessible learning. I enjoy working hard to develop learning resources that makes the learning experience as fun and easy as possible.

Q: Where do you see yourself in five years?

A: I am hoping to be happy and healthy, can’t ask for much more than that.

Q: What did you want to be when you were young?

A: I don’t remember anything specific. I guess it would have been something like “professional AFL player”, but that was never likely to happen.

Q: Coffee or tea?

A: I love both. It’s great heading out with friends and family for a coffee on the weekend. There’s also nothing better than a tea in the afternoon.
