ABOUT ISLAMIC RELIEF:

Islamic Relief is an international relief and development agency striving to alleviate poverty

and suffering around the world regardless of race, political affiliation, gender or belief.

Established in 1984 in response to the widespread famine in Africa, Islamic Relief has

grown to be a well-known and respected aid agency providing disaster relief and

supporting the sustainable development of vulnerable communities in over 40 countries.

Islamic Relief is a member of the UK Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) and is an

implementing partner for DFID, ECHO, the World Food Programme and UNHCR.

Islamic Relief Australia (IRAUS) is member of the global Islamic Relief group of

collaborating relief organisations that share a common vision, mission, and family identity,

and all of which use the term “Islamic Relief” as part of their organisational name. Islamic

Relief Australia has an annual turnover of approximately $15 million and employs 19 staff

and over 150 volunteers throughout Australia to support local and international

emergency, welfare and development projects, as well as fundraising and advocacy work.

Islamic Relief Australia has a diverse portfolio of humanitarian, welfare and development

projects being directly implemented by Islamic Relief staff and volunteers or through

partnerships with local not-for-profit and community-based organisations. Islamic Relief

Australia is an active member of the Australian Council for International Development

(ACFID) and adheres to the ACFID Code of Conduct which defines minimum standards of

governance, management and accountability of development for non-government

organisations (NGOs).

correspondence.

Prepare agendas, minutes, and follow-up actions for Executive and Board meetings.

Coordinate with internal and external stakeholders on behalf of the CEO.

Assist in maintaining accurate records for audits, policies, and regulatory requirements.

Support Board governance processes, including preparing papers, maintaining registers,

and tracking compliance.

Assist in coordinating training and governance development initiatives.

Organisational Support:

Assist with the implementation and monitoring of organisational systems and processes.

Ensure policies and procedures are followed through procurement, travel, and compliance

activities.

Contribute to organisational culture by supporting collaboration, professionalism, and

continuous improvement.

PERSON SPECIFICATION:
