After 14 years of distinguished service, the current CEO of ChildFund Australia is stepping down and the Board is seeking to appoint an exceptional, purpose-driven Chief Executive to continue the impactful work of the organisation.
The CEO will lead the organisation in this era of change to ensure excellence in programming for children and communities in the Asia Pacific region and beyond. Promoting ChildFund’s brand and reputation with relevant stakeholders, the incumbent will seek to develop new collaborations with other NGOs, donors, research bodies, local and international agencies as it leads advocacy around childrens’ issues. In close partnership with the Board, the CEO will drive a positive, value based culture, ensure alignment to the mission, as well as design and implement a new strategic plan in order to diversify revenue and enable growth and sustainability.
You will be an inspirational, visible and courageous leader, committed to creating a high-performance culture in diverse cultural contexts. A highly action oriented individual, you will demonstrate your entrepreneurial spirit and ability to grow a Not for Profit organisation. Exceptional advocacy, influencing and stakeholder engagement skills are essential. Prior experience in leading international development or humanitarian response organisations will be highly regarded, but not essential. Relevant tertiary qualifications in Human Services, Business Administration or related fields are required.
