**About our client**:
People with Disability Australia (PWDA) is the peak body for people with disability and is made up of, led and governed by people with disability. It is a national disability rights, information, advocacy and representative organisation.

PWDA was founded in 1981 and has a vision of a socially just, inclusive and accessible community, in which the human rights, belonging, contribution, potential and diversity of all people with disability are recognised, respected and celebrated with pride.

PWDA is led by a Board of Directors elected through our membership base of people with disability from across Australia. Many of our staff are also people with disability.

We are a designated Disabled Persons’ Organisation with a cross disability focus and are a not for profit, non-government organisation.

**Role responsibilities**

Reporting into the Senior Manager, Corporate Services, you will proactively oversee governance policies, procedures and processes to ensure compliance with PWDA’s constitution and external requirements. This role will also be a key organisational contact point for the Board regarding governance and compliance best practise.

While your role will focus on governance and compliance - you will be working as part of a tight-kinit Corporate Services team and at times may work collaboratively to provide broader ad hoc support.
- Proactively manage, update and communicate on best practice governance frameworks, policies and procedures - providing advice to members, Board members and the Senior Management Team as needed.
- Be a key point of contact for board members - providing end-to end support from organising arrangements and access requirements for Board meetings, to helping with Board paper and agenda preparation to minuting and distributing action items/minutes.
- Support the delivery of Board inductions and training - managing the distribution of the Board induction kit for new members.
- Liaise with auditors for annual audits, project managing with leadership on required risk audits - preparing reports and actioning recommendations when needed.
- Manage relationships with accredited bodies, staying up-to-date on sector accreditation standards and ensuring statutory compliance.

***
**Essential Requirements**

You will have robust experience with governance and compliance, and a strong understanding on how this can impact organisational risk. You will also have experience in, or a passion for, the community services sector and enjoy collaborating in a small team environment.
- Tertiary qualifications in business administration; work health and safety, risk management, project management, auditing, and compliance - or proven experience in a similar role.
- Demonstrated experience overseeing internal governance and compliance requirements including developing and updating governance and compliance frameworks.
- Intermediate skills with Microsoft Office, including Word, PowerPoint, and Excel.
- The ability to take minutes for committees and Board meetings, with established written communication skills - in particular business communications (such as Board paper preparation and report writing for audits).
- Strong project management and the ability to prioritise time to meet competing deadlines.
- A proactive approach in maintaining and communicating governance and compliance matters internally.
- The ability to liaise effectively and build strong relationships with senior stakeholders both internal and external.
- A valid Working with Children’s Check (WWCC), Police Check and a full vaccination against COVID-19, including a booster.
