Why Greening Australia

We started restoring Australia's landscapes in 1982 and we haven't stopped since. At Greening Australia, we work on major programs that bring life to landscapes and restore balance to the natural environment in significant areas across Australia. Through our major programs, we demonstrate restoration on a massive scale, covering millions of hectares of land and protecting thousands of native species.

In 2018 we set our 2030 vision and impact goals which include the aim to plant half a billion trees by 2030. Proudly rooted almost 40 years of history as a national not-for-profit, in 2019, Greening Australia took a new direction re-framing our brand as an environmental enterprise, a critical step in meeting our 2030 goals.

To achieve our goal, we need to collaborate and work with a range of partners, supporters and customers. The Greening Australia Foundation team manages our philanthropic relationships and members who are key to us achieving our vision.

The Role

The Relationship Development Lead will join our Greening Australia Foundation team, working to build meaningful philanthropic relationships and secure funds including untied funds towards our broader vision and mission and programmatic funds to achieve and leverage Greening Australia’s strategic 2030 goals.

As our Relationship Development Lead, your key responsibilities will be to grow philanthropic relationships and secure funds through both proactive and reactive new business development activity as well as managing and growing a portfolio of existing supporter relationships.

This role will have a key focus on organisational giving, including business donors and brand affiliated partners as well as major individual donors. As part of a small dynamic team you will also support with securing funds from other sources including but not limited to, trusts and foundations, corporate foundations, bequests and individual giving.

You will have a high level of integrity and accountability with a focus on achieving your goals through a ‘donor centric’ approach, ensuring that relationships with supporters are meaningful and long-lasting.

Working effectively with internal stakeholders to progress supporter relationships will be key to the roles’ success, coordinating with Greening Australia staff on activities such as proposal development and stewardship activities such as engagement and reporting.

This role will be fast-paced, have lots of variety, and will involve engaging with a range of stakeholders – external and internal, so bringing your 'can do' attitude and solutions focussed approach will be essential to your success.

Based in our head office in Melbourne, this role is nationally focussed.
