Jem Ryan is a right-arm fast bowler from Toowoomba who earned a Queensland Bulls rookie contract ahead of the 2024–25 season following a standout year with the Ipswich Hornets. Ryan also made his Queensland Second XI debut late in the season. He also played for the CA XI against the touring English Lions team in a four-day tour match in Brisbane in January 2025. A back injury has held him back for the start of the 2025-26 season but made his return in the second half of the summer.
He was upgraded to a full contract with Queensland for the 2026-27 season.
