Anglicans in Development (AID) works with overseas and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and communities. As a wholly owned company of the Anglican Board of Mission Australia (ABM), we have a holistic view of God’s mission. We work with Anglican Church partners and others to see lives empowered and transformed spiritually, materially and socially.

We are seeking a dynamic individual who will be committed to the vision of ABM AID. The Governance Support Officer (GSO) will be responsible for the provision of administrative and communication support to the Board and other governance committees of Anglicans in Development (AID) and ABM Australia. The GSO will also be expected to provide general backfill administrative support as required.

The Governance Support Officer will:

1) Provide secretarial and administrative support for all Governance and Committee meetings – including all elements of agenda and minute preparation, minute-taking, resolution tracking, and electronic posting of agendas, minutes, and supporting materials.

2) Serve as meeting coordinator for all Governance and Committee meetings (which occur both online and face-to-face) – including room and technology setup and knock down; attendee meal/refreshment; travel arrangements; and related tasks as required or directed.

3) Deliver other administrative support work as requested.

The ideal candidate will have excellent communication skills and will be able to work autonomously, with minimum supervision. We are looking for an excellent administrator / coordinator who (ideally) possesses some experience working with or around Boards/Committees and who is able to deliver high-quality written outputs/documentation (in particular Minutes of Meeting).
