Sydney, Australia Invasive Species Council Full time

About the role

Want to lead one of the fastest growing philanthropy programs in the country? For one of the fastest growing and impactful environment organisations?

This is an exciting opportunity for a talented specialist in major gifts fundraising who is wanting to have an impact on the future of wildlife in Australia and make a big difference for nature. With 5-7 years plus of experience in major gifts and trusts and foundations you will play a crucial role in the growth of a dynamic national environmental organisation tackling the leading cause of animal extinction — invasive species.

HERE’S THE BASICS

Position: Philanthropy Executive

Reports to: Marketing and Development Director

Basis: Full or part time.

Location: Close to Sydney or Melbourne preferred and other locations in Australia considered.

Duration: Permanent role

Salary range: Up to $130,000 pro rata, depending on experience. (Plus super)

This is an exciting opportunity for a driven and passionate environmentalist to join Australia’s leading advocacy organisation tackling invasive species.

The Invasive Species Council is on a ten-year journey of growth as we aim to prevent more invasive species-led extinctions by 2030 in the midst of an extinction crisis. With 2 billion animal deaths every year due to cats alone, we need to build all areas of fundraising to support organisational growth so that our conservation team can stop the onslaught of invasive species.

Engaging with existing or potential philanthropists comes naturally to you. You enjoy chasing up leads and you can transform the smallest of encounters into an opportunity to protect biodiversity. You’re confident with data and can easily make your way around a spreadsheet and develop a pipeline, for both stewardship and acquisition and reporting. You have a knack for matching a great case for support with a potential funder, writing a compelling proposal and delivering it to the right person at the right time - be it an individual, a family fund or a traditional foundation.

You will work closely with the Director of Marketing and Development, CEO, CEO’s Executive Assistant, key members of the Board, Fundraising Manager and the Conservation Director. The team will love your enthusiastic and flexible attitude and your maturity will allow you to happily work autonomously, complete multiple projects at once and contribute positively to our great team culture.

At a personal level you will have a good work ethic, resilience, tenacity, confidence and compassion. You will also be comfortable collaborating and know how to set yourself and the organisation up for success, and are bold enough to do it.

SOUND LIKE YOU?

About us. The Invasive Species Council prides itself on providing a wonderful team culture and a flexible working environment with most staff working remotely. We gather twice a year as an organisation, take other opportunities to get togethers throughout the year as they come, and provide an office environment in Canberra and Melbourne a few days per week. We are rapidly growing but are small enough to stay nimble and support a close working environment, whilst being powerful enough to make a difference. We work to a high standard, professionally and personally. The team will support you to deliver a best practice program.
