The Organisation
Tomorrow Today is Benalla and district’s independent community foundation. We connect people, resources and ideas to build a stronger, more resilient and prosperous rural community.

Education has been at the heart of Tomorrow Today’s work since it launched the Education Benalla Program in 2010. Working with families, schools and the community, this whole of community program is designed to improve the educational outcomes - and future opportunities - of Benalla’s young people.  This depends on cross sector collaboration, linking government, non-government agencies, community, philanthropy and business to work together on shared goals.  Benalla is now recognised as a leading national example of community-led, place based change. 
Alongside this, our Community Fund provides independent grants to local groups, supporting projects that make a lasting difference. With a history that spans back to 2001 along with a dedicated Board, skilled and passionate staff and scores of community volunteers, Tomorrow Today has been proudly built by the community, for the community.

The Opportunity 
The Executive Officer (EO) will provide strategic leadership and management, working closely with the Board and staff to advance Tomorrow Today’s purpose.

Key priorities for the next 12-24 months include executing and delivering a new strategic plan, strengthening fundraising and sustainability, embedding further program evaluation, and representing Tomorrow Today at all levels.

This is a unique moment: Tomorrow Today has the potential to become a national reference point for community-led, place-based change.
