• Highly developed stakeholder engagement and relationship management skills, with the ability to represent the organisation effectively with government agencies, funding bodies, community organisations, and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and Elders
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to produce high quality reports, briefing papers, correspondence, and programme documentation for a range of audiences
• Strong analytical and critical thinking skills, with the ability to identify and respond to complex practice, operational, and workforce challenges with sound professional judgement and a solutions-focused approach
• Demonstrated understanding of and commitment to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander self-determination, the community-controlled sector, and culturally responsive leadership in a community services context
• Capacity to work with a high degree of autonomy, manage competing priorities across a complex portfolio, and maintain clear and proactive communication with the Operations Manager and Chief Executive Officer
