Lead with Purpose

Centacare Kimberley is seeking a full-time Chief Executive Officer to be based in Broome, WA, with regular travel throughout the Kimberley region.

Reporting directly to the Board of Directors, you'll provide strategic leadership across one of the Kimberley's leading Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisations, ensuring strong governance, financial sustainability and the continued delivery of high-quality, culturally secure community services. Working alongside an experienced Executive Leadership Team, you'll help shape the organisation's future while building lasting partnerships with communities across the region.

More specifically, your core responsibility will be to:

• Lead the implementation, monitoring and ongoing review of Centacare Kimberley's Strategic Plan
• Provide strategic leadership and trusted advice to the Board of Directors on governance, financial and organisational matters
• Inspire and support the Executive Leadership Team while fostering a culture of collaboration, accountability and continuous improvement
• Oversee the organisation's financial performance, sustainability and effective stewardship of resources
• Build strong and enduring partnerships with Aboriginal communities, Elders, government agencies, funding bodies and sector stakeholders

The Leader We're Looking For

To succeed in this role, you'll hold relevant tertiary qualifications in Management, Business, Community Services, Social Work, Public Administration or a related discipline. Significant senior executive leadership experience within the community services, not-for-profit, Aboriginal Community Controlled, government or related sectors will also be essential.

Additionally, the following skills and experience will be highly valued:

• Strategic leadership and organisational governance
• Financial management, budgeting and long-term sustainability
• Business development, grant acquisition and contract management
• Building collaborative partnerships with Aboriginal communities, government agencies and funding bodies
• Leading organisational growth and continuous improvement
• Developing and mentoring high-performing executive and multidisciplinary teams
• Navigating complex governance, compliance and risk environments

Beyond your experience, you're a collaborative and values-driven leader who believes the best outcomes are achieved by empowering others. You'll recognise the strength of an experienced leadership team, value genuine partnerships and bring people together around a shared vision.

Equally comfortable working alongside a volunteer Board, engaging with Aboriginal communities and representing the organisation across government and sector networks, you'll combine strategic thinking with authenticity, sound judgement and a genuine commitment to creating positive outcomes for the people and communities of the Kimberley.

Beautiful Broome!

Broome isn't just where you'll work. It's where you'll live, explore and become part of a welcoming community.

Perched on the edge of the Kimberley, Broome offers a lifestyle that's difficult to replicate anywhere else in Australia. Picture red pindan cliffs meeting the turquoise waters of Cable Beach, world-famous sunsets that never seem to get old, and a pace of life that gives you the space to enjoy what matters most.

Here, a five-minute commute replaces peak-hour traffic. Weekends are spent exploring untouched beaches, fishing, camping or venturing deeper into the Kimberley. Local experiences like watching a film under the stars at Sun Pictures become part of everyday life.

The rhythm of the region changes with the seasons, with both the dry and wet bringing their own beauty, adventures and opportunities to experience this extraordinary part of Western Australia. Whether you're enjoying a morning coffee in town, catching up with friends at the local markets or discovering another corner of the Kimberley, you'll quickly understand why so many people choose to call Broome home.

Some places change your career. Others change your perspective. Broome has the opportunity to do both.

Your Leadership. Their Future.

If you're looking for an executive opportunity where your leadership can strengthen communities, empower capable teams and shape the future of a respected Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisation, we'd love to hear from you.
