**Who We Are**
Social Ventures Australia (SVA) is an innovative social impact organisation operating across Australia.

We use our broad outlook, transformational thinking, and trusted voice to lead the charge against inequality in Australia. We were created over 20 years ago to find innovative solutions to entrenched social problems and speed up the rate of positive change.

We think differently, help redesign systems by learning about what works in communities, and work hand-in-hand with passionate partners to take real action and achieve positive social change.

**Our Consulting Team**
Our Consulting team works exclusively on for-purpose projects that strengthen the social sector and have a positive impact on people and communities.

Founded 15 years ago by strategy consultants from some of Australia’s leading firms, SVA pioneered social sector consulting in Australia. In the past 15 years, the team has worked with hundreds of clients, including non-profits, governments, social enterprises, First Nations people and communities, philanthropic organisations and corporates pursuing social change to deliver high impact projects.

Our projects generally fall into one of five service offerings:

- Strategy - helping organisations to determine their purpose and strategic goals and how they can best achieve them.
- Outcomes Management - supporting organisations to understand the changes they want to create and how to measure if they are achieving it.
- Collaboration and Partnerships - supporting clients to identify partnership and collaboration opportunities to increase their impact.
- Organisational Effectiveness - helping clients to operate more effectively to ensure they are set up to achieve their goals.
- Program Design - helping clients to develop effective programs that achieve the desired outcomes for participants.

**The Opportunity**

Managers are typically responsible for leading problem solving, managing projects to deliver on client commitments, strengthening client relationships and providing coaching and mentoring to more junior staff, with guidance from Directors and Principals as required.

Managers work across multiple projects, usually two or more at a time, with a typical project lasting between three and six months.

Working in SVA’s Consulting team provides exposure to challenging and rewarding opportunities. You will build close relationships with inspiring clients and communities, sector leaders, colleagues and stakeholders, which provides a great foundation for professional growth and development. You will collaborate with a growing and highly committed team with wide-ranging experience across the social sector.

**Your Benefits**
- Work in a business with a track record of driving meaningful social change including being awarded Best CSR Innovation by the Australian Financial Review (AFR) in 2023
- Be part of the SVA team known for living by our values to put people at the centre and be open and ready to learn
- Work in a team that offers flexibility and a hybrid work model that is specific to you and recognises that work is only one of our priorities.
- Join a business which prioritises personal wellbeing and development, including an additional week’s leave after working with SVA for two continuous years.

**Who You Are**
This role with SVA is a great opportunity for a person with strong management/strategy consulting skills and a passion for working in a business focussed on social sector impact.

Managers will:

- Bring a total minimum of 6 years’ working within a problem-solving role (e.g., consulting, social sector, government, law, finance business), with experience in management/strategy consulting in an established firm highly desirable. This will include experience in identifying the core client problem to be solved, structuring workplans, and designing and executing analysis to test hypotheses while maintaining focus on the most critical issues;
- Be self-motivated and have the ability to ensure key tasks and requirements are taken through to completion;
- Have previous experience in research, data modelling and analysis, building presentations and reports;
- Possess strong interpersonal skills and be sensitive to engaging clients in challenging situations with empathy and respect;
- Demonstrate a sound understanding of strategic consulting tools, including structured thinking, and the ability to lead junior team members in developing these skills;
