Women’s and Girls’ Emergency Centre (WAGEC) is a feminist, grassroots organisation that supports women and families in crisis and advocates for social change in the community. We work on the lands of the Gadigal, Wangal and Dharug people of the Eora Nation.
Every night, we support 200 women and children impacted by homelessness, domestic violence, and systemic disadvantage. Equally we seek to address the underlying causes of gender-based violence through primary prevention activities with communities and private and public entities that want to be a part of the global movement to end gender-based violence in a generation.
The Tech Safety and Prevention team is based within WAGEC’s Client Programs department and works to educate frontline staff, and support women and families who are experiencing technology-facilitated family/domestic violence.
This Lead role will head up a small, new team to promote and educate about online safety and tackling technology-facilitated abuse and exploitation. The role requires sound technical knowledge with an emphasis on empowering victim-survivors, using trauma-informed approaches and survivor-centred strategies to assist individuals affected by coercive control, online abuse, financial exploitation, and other types of digital harm.
This is a female-identified role, as per Section 126A of the Anti-Discrimination Act 1977 (NSW), due to the need to attend refuge sites to meet with clients and staff.
This is full-time, hybrid role for an initial period of 24-months and requiring visits to WAGEC sites as required.
