We are thrilled to announce a strategic partnership between FiSci and C2 Operations Pty Ltd, and to welcome Simon Davis, Director of C2 Operations, as the newest member of the FiSci Advisory Board. This partnership marks a significant step forward in FiSci’s mission to transform bushfire management in Australia, combining cutting-edge technology with decades of operational expertise.
Simon Davis: Bringing Operational Excellence and Industry Insight
Simon Davis brings decades of frontline and strategic leadership experience across Australian fire and emergency services, including senior operational roles such as Chief Superintendent for the NSW Rural Fire Service. Throughout his career, Simon has led teams of hundreds of personnel, managed thousands of volunteers, coordinated multiple incident control centres, and overseen large-scale mitigation and response programs across extensive regions.
He has also held senior NSW Government executive roles, overseeing State-level operations, emergency policy, crisis coordination, and disaster recovery, activating numerous natural disaster declarations across hundreds of Local Government Areas.
As the Director of C2 Operations, Simon now provides advisory, strategy, and interim leadership support for organisations across emergency management, agriculture, renewables, infrastructure, and government sectors. His experience provides an unparalleled perspective on operational realities, risk management, and the systems needed to keep communities and assets safe.
“I am committed to offering dynamic and authentic executive leadership—drawing on deep operational, policy, and strategic expertise—to create a continuous positive impact for communities. I aim to leave a lasting legacy in how Australia prepares for and responds to bushfire and emergency risk.”
