You will be responsible for building and unifying diverse teams, fostering a culture of collaboration, and managing conflict sensitively. You will also bring a strong track record in building relationships with stakeholders, balancing grassroots advocacy with national influence.

About You

We are looking for a committed, compassionate, and visionary leader with the integrity, skills, and dedication to support your team, grow the Centre, and drive systemic change.

The ideal candidate will have:

  • Postgraduate qualifications in health, public health, management, administration, or equivalent degrees and/or experience.
  • Demonstrated, successful experience in a CEO, Executive Director, or GM role, ideally in the domestic, family or sexual and/or social justice sector.
  • 10+ years' senior leadership experience with proven governance and strategy expertise.
  • In-depth understanding of the domestic, family or sexual sector, and healing models.
  • High-level political and stakeholder engagement skills.
