Men are dying too young – and it doesn’t have to be that way.
Around the world, men are facing a health crisis: prostate cancer, testicular cancer, poor mental health and suicide. At Movember we’re on a mission to change the face of men’s health by making it easier for men to talk, act and live longer healthier lives.
Every project, every campaign, every idea adds up to real change. You’ll be part of a moustache-powered crew who believe making an impact and having fun should go hand in hand. Your mission is calling.
DO GOOD. Work for Movember.
Your Mo-Mission (should you choose to accept it):
Movember is growing its Partnerships team in line with a strategic shift towards partnerships as a key pillar of our work, and we need a Senior Manager, Strategic Partnerships to lead the charge in Australia. You'll take ownership of an existing partnership portfolio while actively hunting for new opportunities to drive revenue and reach, all in service of funding Movember's life-saving programmes. This role sits at the intersection of fundraising and relationship-building, and you'll play a central part in shaping the fundraising strategy across every partnership you manage.
Partnerships are one of Movember's most important and fastest-growing funding streams, and your job is to build long-term, mutually beneficial relationships that genuinely meet a business's needs, whether that's employee engagement, brand value, CSR objectives or wellbeing outcomes. You'll create real value for both sides, contribute meaningfully to overall revenue targets, and help partners harness the full power of their business to drive transformational impact. That means building relationships at every level, from senior leaders through to the grassroots, and knowing exactly where you can exert genuine influence.
Reporting to the Director of Partnerships and New Business, you'll work closely with the wider partnerships team locally and globally, plus the Institute, Marketing, and Fundraising and Development teams. You'll manage your portfolio end to end, build compelling review presentations, support new business pitching, and keep Salesforce humming with accurate data on every opportunity. Above all, you'll be a true Movember brand ambassador, always looking for creative and meaningful ways to reach more men, raise awareness of men's health issues, and tell our impact story with real conviction. Based in Melbourne, this is a full-time role for someone who knows how to turn a relationship into genuine, lasting impact.
No Moustache Required - but the following are:
5+ years of experience in the partnerships space, with a track record of delivering best-in-class partnerships
Previous experience in line or team management
A demonstrated track record of taking initiative, working independently, and being genuinely resourceful
Excellent interpersonal skills with the ability to build and maintain lasting relationships
Strong organisational skills, with the ability to prioritise and manage several programmes concurrently and meet deadlines
Strong problem-solving skills and a high level of self-motivation
Comfort working in a fast-paced, high-growth environment, with the adaptability to flex as priorities shift
Proficiency in research techniques and database management
Proficiency in building compelling proposals, with demonstrated experience developing mutually beneficial strategic plans
Not Mission Critical - but for extra street cred:
GOOD CAUSE:
Working for Movember, you’ll help turn ideas (and moustaches) into millions for men’s health. Every bit we raise changes the face of men’s health by funding research, improving treatments, and supporting programs that help save lives
We’re even shaping government policies on men’s health worldwide. By meeting directly with lawmakers, and helping them understand how more investment on men’s health benefits not just men, but all the communities they serve.
GOOD VIBES:
We love weekends. That’s why our Fridays finish early for nine months of the year. But we also love our office vibe. Because here, it always feels like something big is about to happen. Be it an office-wide surprise birthday party (with cake!) or an open invite for all to hit the pub.
Come the hairy season, the energy cranks up. We’re talking celebrity visits. Live stunts on-site for TV and radio. And when we hit a fundraising milestone, the office gong might even go off. But, for those who prefer calm, no probs: hybrid working means you work where you feel best.
GOOD CREW:
Spoiler alert: we’re a no-ego, all-impact crew. That means everyone gets a say, from new starters to those leading the charge. Collaboration over hierarchies, curiosity over rigid process. And it’s true across all our offices worldwide. We work as one, sharing expertise and celebrating wins. All in the name of making the biggest impact across the globe. United, we Mo.
We offer:
Flexible hybrid working from home and our modern Richmond office
Finish work at 2pm on Fridays (Dec-Aug)
NFP salary packaging (pay less tax)
13 weeks paid parental leave and 5 weeks annual leave
Fun & collaborative culture with employee social events
Free Headspace subscription and other wellbeing initiative
Relaxed dress code
Boy, do we know the feeling of being judged. (Over how we look, and other things that shouldn’t matter.) Being different is how we started. And it’s also helped us raise $1 billion for men’s health. So, we know the power of diverse experiences, skills and perspectives.
And another impressive number is our WGEA gender pay gap: it sits at a big, fat, round 0%. If you’ve got the relevant skills and the right attitude, let nothing stand in your way of firing off your application.
Movember is stronger when Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are part of our crew. We want you to feel supported in exploring opportunities with us. That’s why before applying, we invite you to yarn with Raymond Rosendale, Australian Indigenous Programs Manager, in a virtual catch-up to talk about the role, our community work, or just to share ideas.
Do you want to DO GOOD?
If so, we’d love to hear from you.
