On behalf of the team at EthicalJobs.com.au,
I’m delighted to have you join us for the third
annual Not-For-Profit People Conference.
At EthicalJobs.com.au we’re keenly aware of the
NFP sector’s ongoing challenges to attract, train
and retain the very best staff and volunteers.
That’s what inspired us to launch the first
Not-For-Profit People Conference in 2013.
Now, after two successful years and fantastic
feedback from organisations both large and
small, we’re thrilled to present our biggest and
best conference yet!
The NFP People Conference remains a unique
opportunity for NFP professionals to hear, share
and debate the latest ideas and best practices
around the pressing ‘people’ issues facing our
organisations – alongside leading experts and
peers from some of Australia’s most successful
NFPs, companies, and academic institutions.
So, please enjoy your two days of jam-packed
networking, learning and sharing, which we’ve
designed around five key areas of learning:
• Recruitment • Health & Wellbeing • Managing People Well • Leadership • HR’s Place in Organisational Strategy
About EthicalJobs.com.au
The Not-For-Profit People Conference is organised annually by
EthicalJobs.com.au – we’re a job-search site for people who want
to work for a better world. We bring together job-seekers and
organisations with a passion for social equity, social justice and
environmental sustainability.
Wherever possible, goods and services sourced to deliver the
2015 Not-For-Profit People Conference have been sourced from
environmentally-friendly and ethical suppliers. Any surplus conference
catering will be collected by OzHarvest.
This program is printed on 100% recycled paper.
Special thanks go to all of our fantastic speakers
who are giving up their time to share their
expertise with us.
Thanks also to our Gold Conference Partner, Hays Recruitment, our Silver Partner enableHR and our
Delegate Lounge Partner, Johnson Recruitment, for their fantastic support. We literally could not
put on this conference without them.
Finally, please check out our fantastic conference
exhibitors and don’t forget to have a go at ‘exhibitor
bingo’ to go into the draw to win a lovely hamper
of ethical goodies!
I look forward to catching up with you and
hearing the latest news from your organisation.
Enjoy the conference!

In the face of a rapidly changing workplace and workforce, companies like KPMG are often at the forefront in terms of innovation and adaptation.

1,000 volunteers and counting: How the ASRC developed one of the most sought after volunteer programs in the country
The ASRC has become one of the country’s best known and most successful advocacy organisations – all the more impressive considering their workforce is primarily voluntary (1,200 volunteers to 70 paid employees). Come and learn about the strategies the ASRC uses to attract and retain large numbers of skilled volunteers, and how they approach the inevitable challenges along the way.

Gender diversity: Why aren’t we getting it right?
Despite years of enthusiasm, commitment, policies and strategy, equality for women still remains out of reach. In this presentation, Kathy Kostyrko will cover why our recruitment processes still aren’t getting gender diversity right.
