Brisbane - Bayside & Eastern Suburbs, Deception Bay, Queensland
Full time
Younity Community Services has been part of the Moreton Bay community for over 25 years. We are not a traditional not-for-profit. We are an ambitious, multi-division organisation that takes calculated risks, embraces digital innovation, and thinks seriously about what sustainable community services look like in a changing funding environment.
We are looking for a Head of Community Services who shares that thinking.
The Role
You will lead our Community Services division, currently delivering multi-site, grant-funded programs across Youth Services, Children and Families, and Pathways to Work. You will bring the operational expertise to deliver these programs with excellence, and the strategic mindset to think beyond them.
You understand the community services funding environment from the inside, including its possibilities and its structural vulnerabilities. You will contribute to how Younity builds a more resilient, innovative, and financially sustainable division over time, exploring enterprise models, digital technologies, and new partnerships alongside your core program responsibilities.
This is a senior leadership role with real scope. You will manage a team of 20, hold accountability for divisional budgets and grant compliance, contribute to strategic planning, and work alongside Younity's Leadership Team and division heads to shape how Community Services grows.
This role is for someone who:
Brings direct experience leading programs in community services, youth services, family support, employment pathways, or a related field
Understands the grant funding environment and takes compliance and stewardship seriously
Thinks entrepreneurially about community services, not as a departure from their values, but as an expression of them
Leads teams with clarity, care, and confidence
Is excited by the idea of an organisation that embraces disruptive sustainability
Why Younity
We offer salary packaging, four weeks annual leave, genuine professional development, and a leadership team that is invested in doing this work well. We are a Child Safe organisation with HSQF, NDIS, and NSSAB accreditations, and we take our culture as seriously as our outcomes.
Younity is a safe, accessible, and inclusive workplace. We encourage applications from people of all backgrounds with relevant experience.
