**_An absorbing role for a qualified professional seeking long term commitment to a faith-based organisation that values both experience and new ideas._**

Formed by far sighted champions more than a decade ago, today this Church Foundation works to connect people to the causes they care about. Recognised as “a grassroots fundraiser”, it supports a wide range of community social services, educational and charitable works across greater Brisbane and beyond.

Led by the Director, Communications and Engagement, the Philanthropic/Fundraising team is stable, well established, respected and very productive as it drives significant engagement with the faithful for charitable works across Southeast Queensland.

But time moves on. So, it is now essential to extend future financial sustainability by involving high net worth individuals and showing them how they can make a vital, tangible impact on the good works of the church that has been so central to their lives.

**_This is a fascinating, long term, strongly supported, well remunerated role. It’s a special job for a special person. But it’s not just for anyone.

As a successful development professional, it’s a given that you bring grace and intelligence, initiative and sound judgement, compassion, empathy and a superlative set of social skills. A friendly communicator, quick to find rapport and build trust in others, you’re also quietly resilient - accepting any negative responses as a natural part of this sophisticated position.

As modern as tomorrow, but comfortable working within the ethos of a traditional faith - and its people - you need to bring all the organisational, reporting, office and IT skills that are professionally expected in a senior role in this contemporary and well-resourced office.

A knowledge of the current philanthropic and fundraising landscape is essential. And it’s expected this will be enhanced by your ability to communicate creative ideas and concepts that bring the expectation of ‘making a real difference’.

An integral part of a team that thrives on kindness, compassion, hard work and celebrated success, you will be extremely well rewarded. An attractive salary package becomes extra-special with the provision of a fully maintained vehicle, plus a Brisbane CBD carpark for convenience as there will always be some travel to locations across the greater Brisbane district.
- Windsor Group is committed to equal employment opportunities and providing a safe, inclusive and supportive workplace where individuals and diversity are encouraged. _Windsor Group provides expert advice, HR services, executive search and recruitment services for executive, permanent and temporary/contract roles across commercial, government and nonprofit sectors._
