About Us

At Country Connect Foundation, we exist to unlock lives of potential through the power of country and connection. We deliver services across some of the most remote parts of the Northern Territory, supporting young people, people experiencing homelessness or at risk, and people living with disability.

Our work is grounded in connection to family, culture and country, and we partner with communities to deliver programs that improve social and emotional wellbeing, create employment and economic opportunities, and strengthen local capacity.

Joining our leadership team means more than numbers on a page — you'll be part of a mission to create meaningful outcomes in communities where services are scarce, but resilience and culture are strong.

  • Asset and infrastructure oversight
     – supporting the management of vehicles, properties, and operations that keep services running in remote communities.
  • Board engagement
     – working closely with the CEO and Board to influence decision-making and long-term direction.

This is a hands-on leadership role with the chance to travel to Arnhem Land and other remote regions, experiencing first-hand the communities and programs your work will support.

     – your work directly contributes to positive change in remote communities.

     – maximise your take-home pay through not-for-profit salary sacrificing benefits.
