Any further information about this vacancy:

ADEC is a for purpose organisation serving Victorian communities since 1982. We exist to support, and advocate for, one fair and inclusive community in which all people can achieve their optimum potential regardless of ethnicity, ability, or age. ADEC provides individual and systemic advocacy and services and support to people with a disability and older people, particularly from culturally diverse backgrounds.

Having recently completed a full review of our governance structures and to support the development and implementation of our new strategic plan, we are now seeking an experienced and qualified non-executive director to support the Board in its Clinical Governance responsibilities. The new director will also be a member of the Board's Quality, Safety and Customer Care Advisory Committee. 

While the role is not "hands-on", the candidate must have appropriate qualifications and experience in quality and clinical governance, preferably in health, aged, disability or community services, and have previous experience as a Board director. 

ADEC Board Directors are volunteers; however, Directors are provided with support for development and expenses are paid. 

Please contact the Executive Director, Paula Trood, on 0490889156 or paula@adec.org.au for further information.
