AbSec has recently undergone a period of renewal and is seeking a new CEO to focus strongly on advocacy and programs.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a passionate, highly skilled CEO with outstanding advocacy skills and drive to make a real difference to Aboriginal children, young people, families and communities.
In this role you will report directly to Board of Directors and, in consultation with the sector, develop and implement an AbSec advocacy strategy to effect real change.
