Icon welcomes Nigel Anderson as Group Director of Radiation Therapy
We’re pleased to welcome Nigel Anderson as Icon’s Group Director of Radiation Therapy.
Most recently, as Chief Radiation Therapist at Austin Health in Melbourne, including services at the Olivia Newton-John Cancer Wellness & Research Centre and Ballarat Regional Integrated Cancer Centre, Nigel played a key role in operational development and oversaw several major initiatives, including the enhancement and growth of complex treatment programs such as MR-guided radiotherapy, stereotactic radiotherapy and an extensive brachytherapy service.
He has also held senior positions at Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, and the Department of Health, Victoria—bringing a broad perspective across both public and private healthcare sectors.
Joining a global team
Nigel is excited to join Icon’s growing global network and contribute to the continued advancement of radiation oncology
“The opportunity to be part of an organisation that combines innovation, compassion, and a shared purpose in delivering exceptional cancer care was a major attraction,” said Nigel.
“Icon’s global network and focus on continual improvement create an exciting environment to advance clinical practice and make a meaningful difference for our patients.
“I’m excited to support and empower teams to deliver world-class care, foster professional growth, and drive innovation in how we treat and care for our patients.”
Industry leader
Nigel brings extensive expertise in workforce planning, development, and quality, and is a passionate advocate for professional growth. He champions a hands-on approach to academia and maintains strong industry partnerships with leading organisations including Monash University, Varian, and the Australian Society of Medical Imaging and Radiation Therapy (ASMIRT).
Widely published and the recipient of multiple national awards, Including the Varian Award and Fellowship of ASMIRT, Nigel is recognised for his radiotherapy expertise. He serves as a trusted consultant to the International Atomic Energy Agency and as a Board Director of ASMIRT, bringing a unique blend of operational leadership, research insight, global collaboration, and clinical experience to his roles.
Recognising legacy
We would like to take this opportunity to wish the outgoing Director of Radiation Therapy, Stephanie Price all the very best as she dedicates her time to her position as Queensland Board Director position at ASMIRT and commitment to promoting radiation therapy.
Throughout her 15-year tenure, Stephanie has been an invaluable leader and has made an incredible mark on Icon’s history, playing a critical role in many radiation therapy initiatives, including Icon’s Global Agile Radiation Therapy program, delivering an agile radiation therapy workforce for improved operations, and spearheading a number of technical rollouts, as well as delivering training and education to our Singapore team and most recently, Indonesia.
Thank you Stephanie Price
Group CEO, Mark Middleton recognised and thanked Stephanie for her outstanding contributions.
“Steph is an incredible example of Icon’s dedicated people and our commitment to nurturing leadership talent and giving people the opportunities they deserve,” said Mark.
“Her unique ability to bridge operational and clinical expertise earned her the deep respect of her peers, and as Director of Radiation Therapy, she played a pivotal role in advancing our goal of delivering the best possible care.
“From all of us at Icon we wish her the very best in the next chapter of her life and thank her for the significant contribution she’s made.”
Please join us in congratulating both Nigel and Stephanie.
