About the Role

The Company is seeking an Executive Director for Corporate Affairs, Communications, and Sector Engagement. The successful candidate will be a strategic leader with a proven track record in guiding corporate affairs, sector engagement, and major events activities. This role is pivotal in influencing the supply and demand of the tourism industry, both nationally and internationally. The Executive Director will be responsible for designing and executing the company's approach to sector engagement, overseeing corporate communications strategies,



and leading external positioning efforts to enhance the organization's reputation and impact. The ideal candidate will have a background in a relevant discipline and at least 7-10 years' of leadership experience in corporate affairs, stakeholder engagement, and strategic partnerships.

Key responsibilities for the Executive Director include supporting relationships with key tourism partners, associations, and other stakeholders, and providing executive advisory on strategic issues that may affect the company or the tourism sector. The role requires a leader with exceptional relationship-building skills, the ability to work in complex multi-stakeholder environments, and a deep understanding of the socio-cultural, environmental, and economic aspects of the tourism industry. The candidate should be a team-oriented and influential leader, capable of fostering alignment across diverse stakeholder groups and internal teams. Experience in the tourism, destination marketing, economic development, trade, or major events sectors is a plus, as is an understanding of federal government or public sector environments.
