Environment Victoria is one of Australia's leading not-for-profit environment groups, with a proud history of delivering strategic, people-powered campaigns that tackle climate change and improve environmental outcomes. Independent of government funding, Environment Victoria builds community power, champions practical solutions and works towards a just society living in harmony with a healthy environment.

  
Reporting to the CEO and sitting on the Executive Team, the Fundraising Director will lead the development and delivery of an integrated, multi-channel fundraising strategy that generates more than 90% of Environment Victoria's income and underpins its climate action and nature protection campaigns.

  
Combining strategic leadership with a strong focus on people and performance, you will oversee major gifts, trusts and foundations, bequests, appeals and regular giving, while fostering a collaborative, values-led culture where teams can flourish. You will play a key role in shaping organisational strategy, partnering with the CEO and Board on fundraising priorities and growth opportunities, and ensuring Environment Victoria remains a powerful, independent voice for environmental and social change.
