About the role
ABOUT THE ROLE
This role is based in our office in Western Sydney. However, a portion of the role is external facing meaning this role would not be entirely office based. This multi-faceted role is responsible for building relationships with key stakeholders; promoting the products and services of the association; working with the professional development coordinator to ensure that the professional development program is of high quality and meets the needs of members in NSW/ACT; budget management; team management and overseeing the overall operations in NSW/ACT.
The Manager NSW/ACT reports to the National Manager: Operations and Membership and will be instrumental in uplifting the Association’s profile to members and future members in NSW and ACT and developing a pipeline of future members.
ABOUT YOU
This is a great opportunity for a highly motivated and enthusiastic individual with hands on experience in membership based or service based organisations and building relationships with customers/members. You will have demonstrated experience in developing relationships with external stakeholders, managing small teams especially through times of organisational change and be comfortable in delivering presentations and promoting OTA at local events and conferences. Experience in health or allied health professional associations/peak bodies will be considered an advantage but not essential.
