About Us

EthicalJobs.com.au is working to change the world, one job at a time. 

We bridge the gap between Australians who want to “work for a better world” and the thousands of for-purpose organisations that tirelessly strive to create that better world. 

As a successful, for-profit social enterprise and one of Australia’s top job-search sites for the not-for-profit sector and beyond, we support the work of more than 9,000 for-purpose organisations around the country, and have a passionate community of 300,000+ unique users visiting the site each month.

We also make regular donations to small organisations that are having a big social or environmental impact across Australia – we’ve donated over $1.8 million since 2009, and we’ve catalysed over $2 million in donations from the community on top of that.

We’ve consistently grown our overall impact for 15 years since we launched in 2009.

You’ll be joining a dedicated, passionate and successful team of 24 people who share a vision of a more equitable, just and sustainable world. 

We work mostly remotely, but you have the option to work from our spacious office in Collingwood which has loads of natural light, high ceilings, standing desks, a large outdoor deck for lunch in the sun and drinks after work, and great food and coffee just around the corner.

About the role

This role is a full time maternity leave contract role commencing January 2025 - January 2026.

As a member of our passionate and dedicated 4-person Business Development & Relationships Team, you'll be responsible for strengthening and broadening our ongoing relationships with hundreds of regular advertisers nationally, as well as initiating and developing relationships with organisations that don’t currently advertise on EthicalJobs.com.au.

Working remotely or from our Collingwood office, your work with clients will be via phone, video and email, as we’re not currently doing face-to-face meetings with clients, and may not in the future either.

You’ll be part of a team who are committed to helping a diverse range of Australian for-purpose organisations to find amazing staff and volunteers, so they can change the world more effectively.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Maintaining and strengthening relationships with EthicalJobs.com.au’s current advertisers – who are mostly HR and recruitment professionals
  • Initiating and developing new relationships with employers, primarily in the not-for-profit sector
  • Growing job numbers on the site from employers on your client list – including meeting goals/targets
  • Giving advice to help improve clients’ success with the platform, including through analysis of data
  • Contributing to ongoing development of sales team processes and materials
  • Regularly reporting back on progress with clients
  • Contributing to periodic planning of business development activities
  • Maintaining our CRM database

About you

You have a background in recruitment, business development and/or fundraising. You’re someone who can establish rapport quickly with a diverse range of people and build long-term relationships with paying clients.You’re friendly, fun and work well as part of a team, but you’ve also got initiative, drive and thoughtfulness, so you can work independently through the day.

You’ve got experience meeting and exceeding goals, and you enjoy spending a good part of your day chatting on the phone.

You’ve ideally also spent some time working in or with not-for-profit organisations, so you already know a little about how these organisations work.

Most importantly, you’re passionate about our vision of a better world and would love the challenge of playing an important role in a growing social enterprise.

What do you get beyond a great remuneration package?

  • Work remotely most days if you’d like
  • Flexibility to work a 9-day fortnight if you’d like
  • Paid professional development opportunities
  • Monthly social events
  • The opportunity to have a real impact on the work of over 9,000 charities and social enterprises across Australia!

Plus when you’re working in our Collingwood office:

  • A light and plant-filled work space, with beautiful outdoor deck for outdoor meetings and drinks, and close to public transport
  • A standing desk
  • Unlimited fruit, nuts, chocolate, tea and coffee
  • Pet-friendly workplace – a number of staff regularly bring their dogs in to make the office more fun
