Location: Melbourne | CBD

Job type: Full time

Organisation: Royal Botanic Gardens Board

**Salary**: $72,617 - $80,395

Occupation: Sales/Business Development

Reference: VG/421932_B

For 175 years, Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria has connected people with nature: originally at a heritage-listed landscape in the heart of Melbourne and, more recently, with the addition of a contemporary native garden set within a natural bushland reserve at Cranbourne. These sites are home to extraordinary landscapes, innovative public programming and world-leading plant science, horticultural science and conservation research.
- **Opportunity to work at an iconic Victorian landmark**:

- **Ongoing, full time position**:

- **South Yarra location**

**About our Organisation**

Beyond their physical beauty, the Gardens contribute to global and local biodiversity knowledge, through research, discovery, protection, cultivation and restoration of rare and threatened plant species, both ex-situ and in the bushland, and as the insurance policy for a state's unique flora pre
- and post-bushfire recovery.

Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria is also the custodian of the $340 million State Botanical Collection (including over 1.5 million preserved plants, algae and fungi), housed within the National Herbarium of Victoria, and is a hub for global plant knowledge, with internationally recognised biodiversity management and conservation research programs.

The Gardens is also a steward for irreplaceable preserved plant collections, plant records, seeds and knowledge required for future generations to thrive; and is increasingly known for innovative engagement programs that highlight the role of nature in underpinning individual and community wellbeing, whilst fostering social inclusion for community benefit. It is also dedicated to stimulating conservation action and contributing to climate resilience, lifelong learning and unique memories for all visitors, at every stage of their lives.

**About the Role**

The Private Giving and Bequests Coordinator builds strong engagement with individual donors, including annual Director's Circle donors and Bequestors. This is a great opportunity for a passionate fundraiser to build a bequests program from a portfolio of committed donors and to deepen relationships with supporters who are already passionate about Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria. The Private Giving and Bequests Coordinator also manages the appeals and donor communications to our expanding donor base.
