Our Team
Gary Setter
Business Manager
Gary has 30 years experience working within both criminal and civil investigative environments, which has seen him hold senior level positions within both Commonwealth and State Government organisations. These routinely saw him work closely alongside both Federal and State law enforcement agencies in the management of serious and organised crime.
His initial experience in this field was gained through service in the military, where he held senior level positions within the Naval Investigative Service (NIS), which saw him routinely tasked to undertake investigations throughout Australia, and overseas in multi-jurisdictional environments, which included service in the United States and Singapore working alongside Policing agencies in those countries. His service saw him undertake specialised training in Scene of Crime examination in preparation for overseas duties in areas of conflict.
Following completion of his military service, he entered the Commonwealth Public Sector, working within the Australian Tax Fraud Investigations Unit, and also within the Health Insurance Commission (HIC - now known as Medicare Australia), holding senior level positions overseeing the management of complex fraud investigations into fraudulent attacks made upon the various programs administered by those agencies, many of which involved the use of false identities (Identity Crime)).
Throughout this period, he undertook and completed a raft of training, specific to Policing and Investigations as well as Human Resource Management, OH&S and Quality Management to improve his skills within his chosen field, which include:
-
Advanced Diploma of Public Safety (Police Investigation)
-
Diploma in Fraud Control & Investigation (Govt)

-

His experience gained working within the HIC, undertaking fraud investigations into medical provider fraud, has also provided him with the ability to provide services to clients within the Health Insurance industry, and Corporate Risk Management Solutions is currently engaged with, and working alongside a number of Heath Insurance Funds providing services to minimise risk and deter fraud.
