To be successful, you will have:

Relevant tertiary qualifications in arts administration, producing, event management, project management or a related discipline, and/or significant relevant experience.
Demonstrated experience delivering public-facing arts, cultural, community or event programs.
Strong project management skills across planning, delivery and evaluation phases.
Experience leading teams and fostering a collaborative, high-performing culture.
Exceptional stakeholder engagement and relationship management skills.
Strong financial, budget monitoring and procurement experience.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including report writing and grant-related documentation.
High-level proficiency in Microsoft 365 and relevant business systems.
The ability to manage competing priorities and deliver quality outcomes in a fast-paced environment.

Why Join Us?

At Boroondara, you'll have the opportunity to make a meaningful impact on the cultural life of one of Melbourne's most vibrant communities. You'll work alongside passionate professionals in a collaborative environment that values innovation, creativity and community connection.
