- Identify suitable grant opportunities and prepare, submit and administer formal applications, including reporting and acquittals.
About You
- Strong organisation, initiative and attention to detail, with the flexibility to work independently and balance priorities.
- Excellent written and verbal communication, relationship-building and presentation skills, including confidence presenting opportunities to businesses, community stakeholders and large groups.
- Experience in sponsorship, sales, partnerships, fundraising or business development, with the willingness and confidence to follow up leads and actively pursue opportunities.
- Strong proposal‑writing skills, including the ability to prepare professional sponsorship, partnership, funding or grant proposals.
- Experience with a CRM, membership database or similar online platform, digital communications, website content and social media, plus the willingness to learn Club Sailing Manager and other club systems.
- The confidence and practical capability to personally coordinate and deliver clubhouse functions on site.
- A current Working with Children Check and satisfactory National Police Check, or the willingness to obtain both before commencing employment.
Highly Regarded
- Experience in a community, sporting, membership-based or not-for-profit organisation; grant administration experience; or an interest in sailing, sport and community participation.
