Looking for a challenging and fulfilling role in executive management? Join the Central Land Council’s Executive Management Team as the General Manager Corporate Services, one of three newly created General Manager roles in Alice Springs.
The CLC is established by the Aboriginal Land Rights (Northern Territory) Act, with an elected 90 member Aboriginal Council. It has been effectively fulfilling its statutory functions through representing, protecting and advocating for Aboriginal peoples’ rights and interests for over 45 years.
Reporting to the Chief Executive Officer, you will be responsible for the management of all assigned business units and cultivating professional, cooperative multi-disciplinary teams. As a strategic leader, you will drive strong organisational performance and ensure compliance with relevant statutory requirements, internal policies and procedures.
In this role, you will work constructively with the Executive Management Team to ensure the effective day-to-day operation of the CLC and drive positive outcomes with and for Aboriginal people across the CLC region. You will represent the CLC effectively at the local, regional, and national levels, building and sustaining key relationships with senior representatives of government and other Aboriginal organisations.
The assigned Business Units presently include:
- Finance
- Human Resources
- Computer Services
- Technical Services
- Information Services

To be successful in this role, you must have relevant qualifications and membership with CPA Australia or the ICAA, as well as sound knowledge of the Public Governance, Performance and Accountability Act 2013 (PGPA Act) and related rules. You must also be skilled in negotiation, consultation, conflict resolution, and liaison with senior staff, clients, community organisations, and government agencies, particularly in a culturally appropriate way with Aboriginal people.
With a focus on achieving organisational and operational objectives through leading and developing individuals and teams, you must set priorities, undertake new tasks quickly, be flexible, and respond effectively to challenges with a high level of personal responsibility. Financial management experience in a human services environment is desirable, as is operationalised knowledge of the PGPA Act and rules. Understanding of the context in which the CLC operates, knowledge of Aboriginal society and culture and experience working with Aboriginal people in Central Australia will be highly valued.
