About the organisation
Stronger Places, Stronger People is a new, national initiative from the Commonwealth Department of Social Services (DSS) and the Queensland State Government.
It tests whether collaboration between communities, governments, services and investors delivering on a locally designed and led plan of action can interrupt disadvantage and create better futures for children and their families.
To do this, a Collective Impact approach is used to shift power and decision-making to community and sector leaders, trusting them to use their collective wisdom to organise and act in the best interests of local children and their families.
To progress Gladstone Region’s early stage initiative, Collaboration For Impact (CFI) and the Gladstone community are recruiting a Backbone Start-up Lead. CFI will manage the post for six months. Thereafter, a local auspicing agency may host the work going forward.
The Backbone Start-up Lead will work closely with the founding Community Engagement Team in Gladstone and will be supported by CFI and Price Waterhouse Cooper’s Indigenous Consulting (PIC).
About the role
The successful candidate will undertake the core activities common to a collective impact backbone start-up lead role. These will include facilitating local relationships and beginning to build the mindsets, structures, systems and processes foundational to collaborative systems change:
The work will pivot from the locally identified need to address community resilience to Gladstone’s boom-bust cycle.
