About Us

We’re a purpose-driven not-for-profit delivering government-funded training, employment, and community programs across Queensland. Known for our strong values, commitment to impact, and supportive culture, we help people access life-changing opportunities — particularly those from underserved communities.

The Opportunity

As our Manager of Growth & Partnerships, you’ll play a critical role in driving program participation, identifying new opportunities, and strengthening referral and stakeholder relationships. You’ll lead a small business development team, but this is a hands-on role — ideal for someone who enjoys strategy and delivery in equal measure.

You’ll use your experience in employment services, training, or not-for-profit sectors to develop pipelines, manage CRM activity, and champion new partnerships that support growth and impact.

Key Responsibilities

Growth & Engagement

• Drive program growth through strategic lead generation and referral partnerships

• Collaborate with community organisations, government agencies, and networks to boost participation

• Identify and pursue new contracts, markets, and growth opportunities

Team Leadership

• Lead, support, and coordinate a small, agile Business Development team

• Monitor performance and provide coaching aligned to practical growth outcomes

• Help set KPIs and keep the team focused on high-impact efforts

CRM & Reporting

• Oversee Zoho CRM activity, ensuring data integrity and pipeline visibility

• Provide executive-level reporting on engagement, conversion, and stakeholder insights

• Identify opportunities to streamline systems and reporting processes

About You

We’re looking for someone with:

• A strong background in business development, partnerships, or stakeholder engagement

• Experience in the employment, training, or not-for-profit sectors

• Demonstrated success in managing pipelines and growth activity

• CRM experience and confidence in data reporting

• A hands-on approach, with the ability to work across strategy and delivery

• A collaborative, proactive, and impact-driven mindset

Previous leadership or team coordination experience is desirable, but not essential.

What’s In It For You

• A values-led organisation with genuine social impact

• Purposeful work with autonomy and variety

• Flexible work arrangements for work/life balance

• Competitive salary + super + performance-based bonus

• Opportunities to grow with a growing organisation
