ABOUT THE ROLE
This is far from your typical corporate leadership role. No two days are quite the same.

Supported by a small, dedicated and highly capable team, you'll be actively involved across almost every aspect of Chamber operations. The role calls for a hands‑on, organised and adaptable leader who is equally comfortable contributing to strategic direction as they are managing the day‑to‑day demands of a busy organisation. This opportunity could appeal to an established or aspiring CEO, General Manager, Operations Manager or experienced business professional seeking a rewarding leadership role where they can make a meaningful difference to the local business community.
