About Print Radio Tasmania

Print Radio Tasmania (PRT) is an established community broadcaster providing accessible, inclusive audio content for people who cannot easily access printed material. For more than 40 years, PRT has played a trusted role in enabling access to information, news, storytelling and community connection.

PRT is entering a period of renewal. Building on its strong foundations in radio reading services, the organisation is evolving to serve people with disability more broadly, while continuing to protect and strengthen services for its core audience.

About the role

The Chief Executive Officer provides hands-on leadership to Print Radio Tasmania, working closely with the Committee of Management to deliver the organisation’s strategy and strengthen its long-term sustainability and impact.

This includes diversifying income, strengthening partnerships, stabilising operations, supporting staff and volunteers, and embedding continual improvement across governance, risk, and people practices appropriate to a small but growing not-for-profit.

The CEO is a visible steward of PRT’s values, modelling inclusive, respectful leadership and supporting the organisation to deepen its contribution across the disability and community media sectors.

This role is ideal for an energetic, adaptable leader who thrives in a small but mighty, mission-driven organisation and enjoys working alongside volunteers. You will value purpose and inclusion, bring creativity to how things are done, and be motivated by building strong community connections and impact.

• Supporting and developing staff and volunteers within a values-led culture
• Strengthening financial sustainability through grants, partnerships, sponsorships and diversified income
• Building strong relationships with disability organisations, funders and sector partners
• Representing and advocating for PRT with credibility and integrity
• Supporting good governance, risk management and compliance

About you

You will bring:

• Leadership experience ideally in a not-for-profit, community, disability, media or related sector
• Strong governance capability and experience working constructively with boards or committees
• Financial literacy, including budgeting, commercial management, financial reporting and grant management
• Proven ability to lead small teams and work effectively with volunteers
• Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills
• A demonstrated commitment to disability inclusion, accessibility and community impact
• The ability to balance ambition with the realities of a resource-constrained organisation
• Confidence with digital tools such as Microsoft Office, and a willingness to learn

Lived experience of disability, or experience in caring or working closely with disability communities, is highly valued.
