Are you passionate about creating a fairer and more sustainable Australia? Do you thrive on strategic leadership and making a meaningful impact in the philanthropic sector?

Australian Communities Foundation (ACF) is a non-profit, intermediary foundation working with hundreds of everyday philanthropists to support structured giving, invest responsibly, address social issues, and create positive, community-led change. As one of Australia’s largest communities of progressive givers with a unique national and local focus, the Foundation has distributed over 11,000 grants since 1997, totalling more than $160 million to community-based organisations. ACF achieves strong annual growth across all indicators, and in 2022/23, the Foundation disbursed more than 1,000 grants totalling $37 million towards its key focus areas and beyond. The Foundation oversees a corpus of $150 million and advises philanthropic charitable structures totalling $220 million. 

ACF is seeking its next Chief Executive Officer to lead the Foundation into the future.
