Fundraising Communications Manager

Established in 1996 Birrung Gallery (formerly Walkabout Art Gallery) is committed to supporting emerging and established Indigenous artists from communities across Australia. We represent over 200 artists from as far north as the Tiwi Islands, Central and Western Desert areas, the APY lands of South Australia and our local New South Wales Koori community. Profits from the sale of artwork go to support many Indigenous artists who live in poverty and World Vision Australia's Domestic Programs.

For more than fifteen years, I’ve greatly enjoyed working in media and corporate communications, as it has allowed me to read, write, travel the world, and meet interesting people and so learn about diverse cultures and backgrounds. I am experienced in delivering national media and communications strategies for leading international corporations and non-profit organisations. Most recently I worked in the humanitarian aid and development sector, and prior to that in telecommunications, government, health, agriculture, and in a consultancy working with finance and information and communication technology (ICT) companies.
