Highly strategic role
- Exceptional stakeholder skills essential
- Innovative approach to building a resilient Queensland

The Queensland Reconstruction Authority (QRA) is the lead agency responsible for disaster recovery, resilience and mitigation policy in Queensland, the most disaster-impacted state in Australia. Its vision is to build stronger, safer and more disaster-resilient communities. It also aims to improve resilience across Queensland and facilitate locally led disaster recovery.

As the lead agency for disaster recovery, resilience and mitigation policy, QRA works collaboratively with other agencies and key stakeholders to reduce risk and bolster disaster preparedness. Since its establishment in 2011, QRA has successfully administered more than $20 billion of funding across 90 disaster events.

This high-profile role of Chief Executive Officer provides the strategic vision for this diverse, agile and flexible organisation that creates and delivers innovative solutions and services. This role is accountable for the organisation’s delivery of high-quality services, programs and policy in alignment with the priorities and policies of the Government. The focus is on the best outcomes for Queenslanders. The role is the Queensland Government’s principal interface with the Commonwealth Government in relation to Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements and the delivery of grants under the scheme.

QRA is currently overseeing and administering a disaster recovery and reconstruction program worth over $5 billion with an operational budget of approximately $43 million, and an agile workforce that fluctuates based on operational activity. At present, QRA has around 220 staff across four divisions - Operations (grants management and program delivery), Resilience and Recovery (policy, projects and operations), Strategy & Engagement and Corporate Services.

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced executive to lead this organisation through its next phase of change and growth. You will enjoy working with a highly competent team.

We are seeking an experienced CEO who can demonstrate managing a complex environment, changing landscapes, and crisis situations. You will have a proven ability to provide strategic direction and deliver high standards of organisational performance. You will be able to demonstrate exceptional leadership and key stakeholder management skills at the highest level, as you will be the key interface between major agencies and local governments (as well as elected officials). Your ability to collaborate across all levels of government will ensure your success in this role.
