WIRE welcomes applications from women and gender-diverse people, especially from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island communities, or who are multilingual or are from culturally diverse communities. WIRE acknowledges the skills and knowledge acquired through lived experience. This could include experiences of marginalisation such as migrancy, racialisation, extended financial insecurity and family violence. We would love to hear from people who can utilise the skills and knowledge they have gained from lived experience for this role.
Pre-employment checks: All employees at WIRE are required to undergo a Police Check and a Working with Children Check to confirm they are fit to work with WIRE service users and program participants. Convictions relating to assault, harassment or violence may indicate an applicant is not suitable to work at WIRE. However, we know that many people are unfairly criminalised, particularly those who have experienced family violence and who are part of marginalised communities. We invite people who have relevant experience to apply for this role and to have a confidential discussion about the circumstances of any conviction which might be considered a barrier to your employment at WIRE.
To apply for this role: please email your current resume and a cover letter that has a one-paragraph response describing an example of your experience, knowledge or ability about each of the Key Selection Criteria to Elena Ashley at *******@wire.org.au .
If there is anything we can do to make this recruitment process more accessible or safe for you due to your lived experience or circumstances, please let us know. You can also record an audio or video response (up to 5 minutes) and send to *******@wire.org.au, or arrange a phone call response to the key selection criteria by emailing Elena to request this option.
