The Finance, Administration and Back Office Awards (the FABOs) are a new opportunity to recognise the people who work in the ‘engine rooms’ of our non-profit sector and the huge contribution which non-profit organisations make to the Australian community. The non-profit sector comprises over 600,000 organisations contributing $43 billion to Australia’s GDP and 8% of employment.

None of the success of non-profits could be achieved without professional and effective finance, administration, IT and human resource management.... People working behind the scenes to support the delivery of social services, environmental improvement, health, sporting and cultural services.

Your HRmanager is excited to be supporting these awards with the sponsorship of the award for Human Resources Manager of the Year. This Award is to recognise the contribution of the person responsible for HR in non-profit organisations. In some organisations, the HR function is folded into an administration job description; in others it is an identified position. This Award is for excellence in the HR field, whether as manager, administrator or volunteer.

The FABO awards cover 10 categories:

• Bookkeeper of the Year
• Judges' Outstanding Achievement Award
• NFP Employer of the Year
• Administrator of the Year
• IT Support of the Year
• NFP Auditor of the Year
• Financial Officer of the Year
• Volunteer Treasurer of the Year
• Human Resources Manager of the Year
• Secretary/Public Officer

Take this opportunity to recognise those in your team whose commitment and effort stands out.

Go to the FABO awards website and submit your nomination before 31 August 2010.
