A pioneering not-for-profit organisation is seeking a visionary Chief Executive Officer to lead a revolutionary approach to aged care service delivery in Australia. As the inaugural CEO of this groundbreaking social enterprise, you will implement a disruptive B2B service model with no current market competitors, addressing critical challenges in the sector while enabling providers to focus on what matters most - exceptional client care.

The Opportunity

This is a rare chance to create lasting social impact at scale. This opportunity represents both significant potential and considerable challenge - the ideal executive will embrace the vision of creating a transformative service model while navigating the practical challenges of establishing a new organisation in a complex regulatory landscape.

As CEO, you will:

• Drive Innovation: Spearhead a pioneering B2B service model that reduces administrative overhead for aged care providers while improving service quality
• Build from the Ground Up: Lead the implementation of a phased growth strategy, starting with an established community welfare organisation as the foundation client
• Create Sustainable Impact: Guide the organisation from initial investment to substantial returns, delivering impressive financial results within the first few years while operating as a charitable Company Limited by Guarantee with Public Benevolent Institution status
• Develop a High-Performance Culture: Build and optimise a multinational workforce across Australian and offshore locations, significantly expanding your team as the organisation grows
• Shape Industry Transformation: Position the organisation as an essential support partner during a time of significant industry transformation in the aged care sector

About You

The successful candidate will embody entrepreneurial leadership within a purpose-driven framework, with:

• Proven executive leadership experience with demonstrated success in scaling organisations
• Track record of B2B business development and sales leadership in complex service environments
• Experience in regulated industries such as healthcare, financial services, or pharmaceutical sales
• Strategic financial management expertise with P&L responsibility for multi-million-dollar operations
• Exceptional stakeholder engagement skills at board, government, and C-suite levels
• Strategic vision balanced with commercial savvy and a genuine commitment to social impact

This opportunity offers the chance to lead genuine innovation in a sector of critical importance to Australian society, with potential to significantly improve both operational efficiency for providers and quality of care for aged care recipients. You're someone who gets equally excited about business growth and social impact. You've led organisations before and know what it takes to scale something new. You understand regulated industries (healthcare, financial services, or similar) and have a knack for B2B sales and relationship building. We seek a leader who can balance commercial imperatives with social purpose. You’ll have the ability to inspire diverse teams around a shared vision of social impact, build trusting and collaborative relationships with stakeholders and apply ethical decision-making that aligns business strategy with our mission to improve aged care.

If you're ready to pioneer transformative change in Australia's aged care sector and build a legacy of sustainable social impact, we invite you to apply for this exceptional leadership opportunity.
