Applications now open for the CEO and first three independent directors.
Chief Executive Officer
The CEO position is a strategic leadership position, requiring vision, energy, and an innovative and entrepreneurial approach. This is an exciting opportunity for someone with highly developed skills in stakeholder engagement, experience in establishing processes and systems, a strong understanding of the disability community and an ability to represent the new entity to the general public.
The NDRP has a strong preference that the successful candidate be a person with disability.
This appointment is for 2 years to guide the establishment of the NDRP. It is initially a work from home position that can be done from anywhere in Australia, though the CEO may choose to establish an office.
