“Children are our future. I am all in for kid’s heath to ensure every child today, tomorrow and for generations to come has access to the best possible healthcare whenever and wherever they need it.”

Having spent a lot of time as a young boy in doctors' rooms and hospitals, Tom Butcher holds a personal connection to the work done by the Sydney Children’s Hospitals Network. Thankfully, his health eventually improved and he went on to study commerce at university before landing a job with accounting firm Arthur Andersen in London that took him around the world on various work assignments.  

On returning to Australia, Tom joined Credit Suisse Investment Bank, as a Managing Director responsible for clients in the transport, infrastructure, power and utilities sectors. He is currently an Executive Director with Macquarie Capital and Head of Infrastructure, ANZ. He is also Chair of the SCHF Board’s Commercial Investment Committee, leading the development of an innovative new pathway to revenue generation. A former trumpet player and dedicated squash fan, Tom has some exciting goals for the Foundation in the future.
