ABOUT STELLA

Stella is a small not-for-profit cultural organisation that was founded in 2012 with the first Stella Prize – a major literary award celebrating women’s writing – awarded in 2013. Through a series of strategic initiatives for women writers, Stella champions outstanding literature, supports greater participation in the world of books, and strives to ensure that women’s writing has a prominent place in Australian culture.

about the role

The ideal candidate will bring compelling communication skills, creative thinking, and an innate ability to build relationships. With a focus on individual donors, major gifts, and trusts and foundations, the Development Director makes a vital contribution to Stella’s vision of a vibrant and equitable national culture that values women’s writing.

This opportunity is ideal for a passionate and ambitious fundraiser with a proven track-record, who will work closely with a highly committed Board and ED to achieve extraordinary impact through philanthropy.

The Stella team currently works remotely with key staff members located in both Melbourne and Sydney. The Development Director will ideally reside in – and have strong networks within – one of these cities.
