Head of Commercial & Member Engagement

Lead Commercial & Member Engagement for an exceptional organisation supporting Queensland Agriculture.

AgForce is a peak organisation representing Queensland's rural producers, existing to ensure the long-term growth, viability, competitiveness, and profitability of the broadacre industries including cattle, grain, cane, sheep and wool in our state. Their members manage over 51,580,534 ha, which equates to 35% of all agricultural land in Queensland (Source: ABARES, 2016), and 30% of all of mainland Queensland (Source: Geoscience Australia).

It is a not-for-profit organisation with over 5500 members and was born out of the need for a single, united voice for all broadacre producers, to represent members on Agri-political issues and create opportunities to support them.

Driven by a dynamic transformation agenda and the recent appointment of the current CEO, a new executive leadership team is being formed with three critical roles in market. This is an exciting opportunity to join an important organisation approaching its next phase of evolution and growth, in a role that will have significant impact on our highly valued rural producers.

Reporting to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), the Head of Commercial & Member Engagement is responsible for the end-to-end commercial member lifecycle and implementing effective plans for events, partnership and funding activities that deliver on organisational objectives relating to securing sector investment and membership retention and growth.

They will be accountable for the leadership and performance of the Commercial & Member Engagement team, which is geographically dispersed across the state, with a remit to connect meaningfully with all members. There is a strong focus on excellence in full saturation of the member landscape to develop a deep understanding of both the individual requirements and whole of industry priorities to respond to.

This is an opportunity to become a trusted advisor to the CEO and ELT, providing guidance and expertise on increasing connection and satisfaction with existing members and growth of both revenue and the membership community.

As a member of the ELT, they will also operate as an enterprise-wide leader, making meaningful contributions to the achievement of overarching organisational goals.

The successful candidate will have a clear track record of generating new revenue streams and existing membership growth along with excellence in stakeholder connection outcomes within a complex sector that requires a careful balance of driving commercial success through a values led approach.

An understanding of the NFP / membership and / or agricultural sector (or similar) would be an advantage.
