This is a hands-on role with a strong focus on creating practical, evidence-based resources that build the capability of legal and community service professionals. You'll contribute to the enhancement of existing programs and use feedback and insights to ensure our training remains relevant, effective and impactful. You will also contribute to organisational projects and initiatives that support Women's Legal's strategic priorities and advocacy outcomes.

Be a part of a supportive, inclusive and purpose-driven workplace where your work truly matters. We offer:
Submit a resume and covering letter to tell us how you are the right candidate for this role. Please ensure the cover letter addresses how you personally align to Women’s Legal values and intersectional feminist principles as described in the attached position description.
Research shows that women are less likely to apply for roles if they don’t meet 100% of the selection criteria. We encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet all the criteria, but this role sounds like a good fit for you.
All successful candidates will be required to produce a national criminal history check prior to the commencement of their employment.
Disclosure of a criminal record does not necessarily preclude appointment by Women’s Legal, but if needed, we invite applicants to address this issue early in the application phase. Should a criminal record disclosure be advised by a candidate, Women’s Legal will endeavour to provide clarity over whether the conviction would preclude a candidate from being able to carry out the position duties.
Please note, all staff employed by Women’s Legal Service Victoria are required to comply with Section 121 of the Legal Profession Uniform Law.

If this is you, we strongly encourage you to apply.
