Icon Group is fortunate to have a huge number of talented women working across the organisation in many roles at different stages of their careers.
In this podcast series, our Iconic Women and guests share the stories of their careers – how they identified opportunities, how they overcame challenges, and how they have lifted up others and been lifted themselves along the way.
In this episode we speak with Kolleen Kennedy – Varian President, Proton Solutions & Chief Growth Office .

Prior to her current role, Kolleen was Corporate Executive Vice President and President of Varian Oncology Systems for seven years. She joined Varian as Marketing Manager for delivery systems and was promoted to manage Oncology Systems Marketing in 2001, and the engineering function in 2002. Today, Kolleen is responsible for growing Varian Proton Solutions offerings and overseas the company’s growth office seeking opportunities to deliver Varian technology to more people.
