About the organisation
Bangarra - Storytellers. Music makers. Visionary dance theatre creators.
Bangarra is an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander organisation and one of Australia’s leading performing arts companies, widely acclaimed nationally and around the world for its powerful dancing, distinctive theatrical voice and utterly unique soundscapes, music and design. Led by Artistic Director Stephen Page, Bangarra is currently in its 30th year but their dance technique is forged from over 65,000 years of culture, embodied with contemporary movement.
About the role
With the company’s move back to its home in Walsh Bay in 2020 and the establishment of an endowment to ensure Bangarra’s financial sustainability through the next 30 years and beyond, they continue to rely heavily on philanthropic and corporate support. To deliver the company’s ambitious philanthropic vision, they now seek a new Development Director, who will have strategic and operational management responsibility for all fundraising programs and initiatives for the company, including their current philanthropic campaign.
The successful candidate will demonstrate a strong track record in strategic philanthropy program management at a senior leadership level, ideally gained in the cultural sector. You possess exemplary stakeholder management and interpersonal skills, with the ability to persuade and negotiate in a tactful and diplomatic manner. A passion for and/or knowledge of the work of Bangarra Dance together with an appreciation of its impact as a cultural, educational and indigenous organisation will be vital.
Closing date for applications is Thursday 27 February 2020.
