As one of Australia’s largest rural charities, Rural Aid is focussed on providing a range of assistance to farmers and their families, and their communities across Australia. We provide critical support in times of crisis, and assistance associated with the long-term sustainability and wellbeing of communities, through counselling and community programs, as we work towards stronger futures for all Australian farmers.
Our values-based organisation is driven by a clear mission to assist rural communities impacted by natural disaster, through partnerships with key stakeholders, to deliver meaningful and sustainable impacts. Critically, strong focus is placed on ensuring donations are used transparently to provide effective and timely assistance to those most in need.
With a refreshed and strategic philanthropy team in place, we are now looking for an experienced Philanthropy and Development Manager to join us. In partnership with the wider team, you will build long-term, values-based relationships with a diverse spectrum of donors across corporate, individual, trust and foundation, and government philanthropic segments. An exceptional network and highly advanced relationship-building and networking skills are essential to succeed in this role.
An accomplished professional, you bring demonstrable poise, a client-focused approach and a passion for the ongoing evolution of sustainable and thriving Australian communities. Furthermore, you are comfortable with ambiguity and you balance your quiet confidence with sharp commercial acumen and a keenness to collaborate to achieve great outcomes.
