Likely covered by whistleblower protections
Based on your answers, you appear to be an eligible discloser under the Corporations Act 2001 (private-sector whistleblower regime). Your identity is protected by law, and detriment against you (dismissal, demotion, harassment, discrimination) is a criminal offence with civil penalties up to A$1.565M for individuals.
Recommended initial recipient
Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC)
You can also disclose internally to an officer, senior manager or auditor (still protected), or to a legal practitioner for advice (always protected). Public disclosures (media, MP) have much narrower protection — get advice first.
