PA is looking for a National Membership & Programs Manager to work at both a strategic and operational level to design and deliver the national member engagement strategy that aims to attract and retain members by delivering programs and services to members and the Australian philanthropic sector, more broadly.
You will have the desire to design and curate a nationally relevant program for members to inform, educate, engage and stimulate their philanthropic practices. You will be commercially minded ensuring the right balance exists between member value and organisational sustainability. Creative in your approach, you will consider ways to develop and leverage new and existing relationships within the Australian philanthropic community and beyond to deliver a relevant, high quality, affordable offering to new and existing members.
As part of the senior management team, you will contribute to the organisation’s overarching strategy, leading and inspiring a small team to deliver on your organisational imperatives. You will understand the for-purpose landscape well and play a role in thought leadership, representing the organisation and the sector more broadly.

You will be capable of understanding and contributing to the organisation’s operations, systems and processes and have a good understanding of IT, CRM and data use and management. You will be financially literate, able to create and manage budgets and you will have highly developed project management skills. Critical to your success will be a willingness to flex between strategic and operational initiatives.
