The Role
We're looking for a volunteer Secretary to help keep our incorporated association running smoothly. This is a governance role central to our compliance as a registered Inc — you'll be the person who keeps our records, meetings, and statutory obligations in order so the committee can focus on delivering programs to families who need us.
Key Responsibilities
- Prepare agendas and take minutes for committee and general meetings
- Maintain the association's official records, registers, and correspondence
- Ensure compliance with obligations under the Associations Incorporation Act (Qld) and any relevant ACNC requirements
- Manage incoming and outgoing correspondence on behalf of the committee
- Support the committee with document preparation, filing, and record-keeping
- Assist with maintaining governance policies and procedures
About You
You'll be a good fit if you have either:
- Experience in not-for-profit governance, compliance, or association administration
- Strong AI literacy and confidence using AI tools to manage admin, drafting, and compliance tasks — with a willingness to self-teach the governance side, supported by an external consultant
You'll also bring:
- Reliability and attention to detail
- Comfort working independently, remotely or in person
- Good written communication skills
What You'll Get
- The chance to make a real difference for children and families in South East Queensland
- Flexible volunteering — around 2–4 hours a week, remote or in person
- Support from an external governance/compliance consultant as needed
- Experience in not-for-profit board administration, valuable for those building a governance career
