Director, Development
Ros commenced as Director of Development at Victoria University (VU) in January 2007. Prior to joining VU Ros worked in both the private sector and with government in a range of seemingly diverse positions. Her work has always involved stakeholder management, project management, community relations and culture change.
Ros worked at the Australian War Memorial for many years. Her work there included:
- overseeing a wide ranging publications program
- managing major national ceremonies and events
- developing the Memorial's first major fundraising program including the establishment of the Australian War Memorial Foundation
At the Institution of Engineers, Australia, Ros helped develop a new corporate image for the organisation, successfully implemented a new sponsorship strategy and staged major events.
In 1999 Ros was invited to join the Secretariat to the National Council for the Centenary of Federation. She subsequently became Executive Producer and Project Manager for the national finale to the Centenary of Federation, the Peoplescape project and coordinated a number of other Centenary projects.
From early 2003 Ros worked as a consultant to the Prime Minister's Community Business Partnership. In that capacity she managed an extensive community business partnership program which included the Prime Minister's Awards for Excellence in Community Business Partnerships, National Community Business Partnerships Week and a range of other activities promoting community business partnerships.
Increasingly Ros' work with the Partnership involved raising awareness of the respective roles of philanthropy, community engagement and sustainability in the business sector.
Ros retains a strong interest in social responsibility and community engagement and hopes to contribute to the development of VU as a model of community engagement.
