As Manager – Growth, Marketing & Strategic Partnerships, you'll be responsible for identifying new opportunities, building strategic relationships and driving sustainable growth across the organisation. Working closely with the Executive and Leadership Team, you'll help expand BGT's reach, diversify revenue streams and strengthen our reputation as a trusted leader in education, employment and community services.

About the role

This is a broad, influential position that combines strategic thinking with practical delivery. You'll work across every area of the organisation to:

• Identify and develop new business and commercial opportunities
• Build strategic partnerships with employers, industry, government and community organisations
• Lead organisation-wide marketing and communications that support growth and engagement
• Monitor emerging trends, funding opportunities and market intelligence to inform future strategy
• Prepare business cases, proposals and partnership opportunities
• Represent BGT across industry forums, networking events and stakeholder meetings
• Help shape new services, initiatives and opportunities that strengthen our impact across regional Victoria.

About you

You're someone who naturally sees opportunities where others see obstacles. You enjoy building trusted relationships, thinking strategically and turning ideas into measurable outcomes.

You'll ideally bring:

• Experience in business development, commercial growth or strategic partnerships
• Strong stakeholder engagement and relationship management skills
• Experience developing and delivering marketing and communications initiatives
• Commercial acumen, including business case development and opportunity evaluation
• Excellent communication, negotiation and presentation skills
• Strong organisational and project management capability
• A collaborative approach and a genuine commitment to creating positive community outcomes.

Experience within vocational education, employment services or the community sector will be highly regarded but is not essential.

Why join BGT?

At BGT, you'll have the opportunity to influence organisational strategy while making a genuine difference in people's lives. This is a role where commercial thinking meets community impact—where the partnerships you build and the opportunities you create help strengthen businesses, support local industries and create pathways into education and employment.

If you're looking for a role that's bigger than marketing—one that combines growth, innovation, collaboration and purpose—we'd love to hear from you.
