Vacancies

Who we are
We are a small not-for-profit organisation with the well-being of women in the Wellington Region at its heart. Formed in the late 1980s, we have since become an established part of the Wellington community.

We provide free support, referrals, information and counselling to thousands of women, more than three-quarters of whom are on very low incomes.

Board Members

A change process culminating in early 2021 shifted us from a Collective structure to a new Board. The purpose of the Board is to direct the Collective toward achieving its purpose and to operate according to its values, providing stewardship of the Collectives operations, reputation and resources. We currently have a small group of committed and connected Board members which we would like to grow.

We are looking for those who identify with our organisational values. We need people with experience in the not-for-profit sector and ideally experience in a governance role. We are keen to engage with people with backgrounds in accounting, fundraising, legal, and HR. We are also seeking people with a therapeutic understanding and connection with iwi. This is a voluntary role and we anticipate a commitment of approximately 2-5 hours a week.
