We warmly welcome Sandee Stanley and Melanie Mason as Principals to Jasmax’s Health Team. Sandee and Melanie bring extensive experience spanning health planning, hospital design and master planning both in Aotearoa New Zealand and Australia.

The appointment of these two high achievers reinforces Jasmax’s commitment to improving the quality and sustainability of healthcare environments across the country.
