The Self Determination Fund is established as a public charitable trust with the First People’s Assembly of Victoria (as the Aboriginal Representative Body under the
_Advancing the Treaty Process with Aboriginal Victorians Act 2018_ (Vic)). The Self Determination Fund is the first of its kind and with an initial $65m from the Victorian Government. Having registered its DGR status, future funding may also be raised from members of the public, other non-government and potentially government sources.

The organisation aims to achieve the following:

The CEO will be an expert relationship builder across a diverse range of stakeholders including First Peoples' community, Traditional Owners and future potential doners and ensure a cohesive and collaborative approach is taken in achieving the desired outcomes.

The incoming CEO must demonstrate the capacity to understand and implement the principles of self-determination and empowerment, fairness and equity, responsiveness, innovation, respect, safety, transparency and accountability. Additionally, we are seeking the following knowledge and experience:

- Proven experience as a CEO or Senior Executive, with expertise in funds management (preferably a charitable trust).
- Strength in operationalizing strategic plans - requiring strong P&L management, governance, commercial acumen and risk management
- At an executive level, can demonstrate a strategic and hands-on approach at the same time.
- Proven ability to develop and nurture complex stakeholder management relationships including Elders, Ministers, government, community and partnerships
- Authentic leadership: knows how to mobilise and engage teams and demonstrates courage and humility
- Strong understanding of and interest in the First Peoples’ community sector and/or inclusion agenda in addressing complex social, political, economic and environmental issues facing First Peoples now and in the future

If you believe you fulfill the requirements of this role and have interest in being a part of this organisation, we would love to hear from you. Please apply.
