To be successful in this role, you will bring:

- Demonstrated ability to provide strong collaborative style leadership;
- Ability to develop strong relationships with various stakeholders;
- A demonstrated commitment to the Christian ethos and values of LDS, and a willingness to support and promote these values in a faith-based organisation;
- A strong understanding of organisational risk and compliance; and
- Relevant DHS, medical and drivers licence history checks (or the willingness to undergo the checks).

- Relevant tertiary/AICD qualifications;
- Experience/knowledge of current trends in the disability sector and the changes relevant to the NDIS;
- Previous experience securing funding opportunities within a competitive tendering environment; and/or lived disability experience.
