The Queensland Early Years Workforce Institute has been established to strengthen the workforce that supports children and families across the state. Operating as an independent, system-level intermediary, the Institute will bring together workforce evidence, planning, commissioning and collaboration to help create a more sustainable and capable early years workforce. This is a rare opportunity to become the Institute's inaugural Chief Executive Officer and shape a new organisation from its foundations. Based in Brisbane and reporting directly to the Board through the Chair, you will translate an ambitious mandate into a clear strategy, a high-performing organisation and measurable statewide impact. As CEO, you will provide strategic, operational and organisational leadership through the Institute's formative years. You will work closely with the Board to establish long-term direction, convert government funding commitments into practical outcomes and maintain strong governance, risk, performance and financial disciplines. You will also serve as a trusted partner to government, funders, sector leaders, First Nations organisations and regional communities. Your initial focus will be to build the organisation's operating platform, establish priorities and work plans, recruit and mentor the executive team, and create a values-led culture. You will oversee organisational performance, financial sustainability and regulatory compliance, while ensuring the Board has clear visibility of operations, risks and outcomes. You will also identify sustainable revenue opportunities that support the Institute's longer-term independence and impact. Central to your success will be the ability to move confidently between big-picture strategy and hands-on delivery. You will connect workforce data and evidence with practical system responses, translate complex information for decision-makers and align diverse stakeholders around shared priorities. The Institute is not a direct service provider or advocacy body; its value will come from acting as a credible backbone for workforce planning, commissioning, coordination and continuous improvement. The environment will be complex, evolving and at times ambiguous. You will need the judgement to make ethically grounded decisions, balance risk and opportunity, remain calm under pressure and maintain momentum when the path is still being defined. Authenticity, integrity, resilience and proactive communication will be essential as you build trust with the Board, staff and stakeholders across metropolitan, regional and remote Queensland. You will be an accomplished CEO or senior executive with direct Board reporting experience, strong P&L capability and a record of leading through change, growth or organisational establishment. Technical expertise in workforce planning and workforce development within a complex market is strongly preferred. Experience across multiple public and private funding streams, government relationships, governance and risk frameworks will be important. Knowledge of early childhood education and care is desirable, although the ability to quickly build sector understanding is equally valued. Cultural capability and confidence engaging respectfully with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders, First Nations organisations and regional communities are essential. For an executive motivated by purpose, complexity and the opportunity to build something of lasting significance, this role offers exceptional scope. You will establish the Institute's reputation, capability and culture while helping shape a stronger, more sustainable early years workforce for Queensland.

The organisation has been doing critical work in Canberra for more than 30 years. Starting in 1992 as a volunteer-run drop-in centre EveryMan now delivers three core program areas: counselling; men's accommodation and support services, including tenancy support and transition support for men leaving custody; and violence prevention services, including men's behaviour change programs. They are a registered charity and public benevolent institution, an NDIS provider and a registered community housing provider. The Opportunity EveryMan is a well-established and respected ACT organisation with an experienced board of senior leaders. With core funding secured and a new chief executive being appointed, the board is turning to its next phase: building the organisation’s reach, profile and income beyond government. Three seats are open, each adding depth in a different area aligned with that direction. You would join one of two subcommittees, Governance or Finance & Risk, each chaired by a Vice President, and you can nominate a preference when you commence. EveryMan is close to fully funded by government and that funding is stable - but the board wants members who can help build income and profile beyond it. As a Board Member for EveryMan you’ll get access to: A defined piece of work to shape: building EveryMan’s philanthropic, corporate and cross-sector income alongside a stable government funding base A clear path to a subcommittee chair role - the Finance & Risk chair position will open up, and a member with the right background could step into it Governance of an organisation whose work is unusually concrete. Members visit sites and meet staff, and consistently describe seeing the work firsthand as one of the more grounding parts of the role A board small enough that individual members genuinely shape decisions, and collaborative enough that you will be heard doing it A structured induction, an optional board mentor, and the chance to understand the work properly before you are asked to govern it The Role As a member you share collective responsibility for EveryMan’s governance, strategy, financial health and compliance, working alongside the chief executive and your fellow members. Set and test EveryMan’s strategic direction, and hold the organisation to account against it Oversee financial performance and sustainability, including the annual budget, financial reporting and the annual audit Oversee risk, compliance and legal obligations as an ACNC charity and public benevolent institution, an NDIS provider and a registered community housing provider Serve on either the Governance or the Finance & Risk subcommittee, which meet virtually each month Support the incoming chief executive through the transition, and oversee chief executive performance and accountability Bring your networks to bear - open doors, make introductions, advocate for EveryMan across your own networks and channels, and support the move to a more diverse funding base across philanthropy, corporate partnerships and the community sector Advocate for EveryMan and grow understanding of the organisation across your own networks and channels Discharge your duties as a company director, including responding to the occasional urgent matter requiring a vote between meetings The Ideal Person You are an experienced senior leader who wants to put governance experience, or a first board seat, behind work that is difficult and largely unglamorous. Three positions are open and the board is not looking for three of the same person. Across all three seats the common thread is philanthropic depth, networks and cross-sector partnerships, and the ability to grow EveryMan’s profile and open doors. Beyond that, the board is adding depth in three areas: social services policy, planning and delivery; community sector leadership and delivery; and finance, where a member with the depth to chair Finance & Risk in time would be particularly welcome. You are not expected to bring all three - depth in one, plus the networks and the willingness to use them, is what matters. You will bring the following skills and experience: Networks and know-how across philanthropy, corporate partnerships or cross-sector fundraising - ideally across the Canberra community sector or the ACT corporate and philanthropic community - and a willingness to use them The standing and the inclination to grow EveryMan’s profile, whether through your networks, LinkedIn or your own channels Depth in at least one of the board’s target areas: social services policy, planning and delivery; community sector leadership and delivery; or finance An understanding of what makes the community sector different from the commercial world Accountability and follow-through - preparation before meetings, delivery between them, and use of your networks on EveryMan's behalf Genuine values alignment with EveryMan’s work, and comfort with the realities of working with men at risk of exclusion and marginalisation Eligibility to act as a company in Australia It would also be desirable to have: Current or previous board, subcommittee or advisory experience, though a strong first-time member will be considered The depth to chair a Finance & Risk subcommittee in time Experience in a government-funded, purpose-driven or community sector organisation Key details These are voluntary, unpaid member positions Two-year terms, renewable The board meets in person every second month at EveryMan’s Canberra HQ, for approximately two hours, with dinner provided Attendance is expected at all board and subcommittee meetings, along with responsiveness on the occasional urgent matter Strong preference for Canberra-based members given the in-person meeting rhythm, though strong interstate candidates with the right background will be considered To be appointed you will need a Director ID, Working With Vulnerable People registration (or an application in progress) and a National Police Check How to Apply To apply online, please click on the appropriate link. Application Requirements: Resume and a one-page cover letter outlining your governance experience, the networks you would bring, your interest in EveryMan’s work, and whether the Finance & Risk chair role is of interest to you.

Men's services are currently under sustained national attention, with work underway on national standards for men's behaviour change programs and continued investment in domestic, family and sexual violence responses. For EveryMan's next CEO, that makes the external and advocacy side of the role a substantial part of the job rather than an occasional add-on. The Opportunity For the right person, this could be a first chief executive role, or equally well suited to a seasoned CEO. EveryMan is now entering a period of renewal. Its long-standing CEO has recently departed, and the Board is looking for a new chief executive to lead the organisation into its next chapter. The incoming CEO will do so from a position of strength. Core service funding is secured for the next three years, giving them a stable base from which to consolidate, invest in its people and plan for the longer term. This is a hands-on CEO role where you will work closely with the team, clients still know the work, the staff (team of ~25) and the clients, and it sits in a policy area that governments, funders and media are paying close attention to. You would be accountable to the board for strategy, financial sustainability, culture and impact, leading a program and corporate leadership team. It is an opportunity for you to enjoy: Real decision-making authority and direct accountability to a board for strategy, finances, culture and impact A visible external role: forums, reviews and consultations on men's issues in the ACT, NSW and nationally, and a media and advocacy platform you shape Ownership of the whole funding picture, from government agreements, tenders and grants through to philanthropy, sponsorship and earned income A gender-specialist practice model with 25 years behind it, and an established Bower Place partnership to steward rather than a service to build from scratch Work that is genuinely difficult and genuinely matters, with a leadership team and workforce already committed to it The Role Three things sit at the centre of the job: leading a workforce doing emotionally demanding work in a culture that is respectful and psychologically safe; sustaining and strengthening the funding base across government, philanthropic and sponsor sources; and being a credible public champion for EveryMan and the men it works with. You will lead EveryMan and work with the board to deliver its vision, mission and strategy, accountable for the organisation's direction, finances, culture and impact. Lead EveryMan’s strategic and operational direction, reporting to the Board against key priorities and KPIs Own financial management, budgeting, reporting and long-term sustainability Strengthen relationships with ACT and Commonwealth funders and secure ongoing service funding Grow and diversify income through tenders, grants, partnerships and philanthropy Lead workforce planning and build a safe, healthy and high-performing culture Partner with the Board on governance, risk and compliance Ensure services remain safe, high-quality, evidence-based and aligned with EveryMan’s specialist practice model Be a strong public voice for EveryMan, leading advocacy, media and stakeholder engagement The Ideal Person The ideal person could be a deputy CEO, an executive director or a general manager doing well in a larger organisation, with board exposure but not yet in the seat. This role will suit someone already at or operating close to this level who is ready to have visibility of and to lead a whole organisation rather than a part of it, and who is comfortable being the public face of work that has to be talked about carefully. Alignment with EveryMan's purpose is not a nice-to-have here. The organisation works with men many services turn away, and credibility with that client group matters as much as commercial judgement. You will bring the following skills and experience: Senior executive leadership experience, ideally in a purpose-driven, government-funded or community organisation A strong track record securing and sustaining diverse funding Financial and operational leadership across complex, multi-program organisations Strong governance, risk and compliance capability, with experience working with Boards A respectful, consultative leadership style and commitment to a safe, healthy workplace Strong stakeholder, advocacy and public engagement skills, with knowledge of the ACT and Commonwealth funding environment Genuine alignment with EveryMan’s mission and the people it supports It would also be desirable if you have: Experience in men's services, family and domestic violence, homelessness, alcohol and other drugs, mental health or justice Experience growing fee-for-service, NDIS or other earned-income streams Established networks across the Canberra community sector Relevant tertiary qualifications, and a practice or lived understanding of high and complex needs work Salary $180k – $200k total remuneration package, inclusive of superannuation Full time, three-year contract Based in Canberra, ACT How to Apply To apply online, please click on the appropriate link.
