At Yalari, we believe education is the key to generational change and a brighter future, not only for Indigenous Australians but for all Australians and our nation as a whole.
Yalari (meaning “child” in Birri Gubba) is a national not-for-profit organisation offering high quality secondary education scholarships at leading boarding schools for Indigenous children from regional, rural and remote communities. Since 2005, Yalari has provided scholarships to hundreds of children from 189 communities, along with a comprehensive student support and development program, and a post-school pathways program to ensure students have the best opportunity for success. In 2021, there are 217 students on scholarships in 20 partner schools around Australia and a growing alumnus of 400 future leaders.
We are seeking a highly motivated Relationship Coordinator to join our Philanthropy and Fundraising Team.
This is a new role responsible working closely with the Fundraising Manager to engage, retain and increase the support from Yalari’s sponsors and corporate partners. These supporters include sponsors of student scholarships, pathways scholarships, student and alumni events and other corporate partners. The priorities for this role are:
You will have exceptional interpersonal communication skills and a manner which inspires supporters and helps them feel good about their giving.
And you’ll be a collaborative team player and a positive influence on team culture with a passion for achieving equality through education for Indigenous children.
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are encouraged to apply.
