Australia’s National Research Organisation for Women’s Safety (ANROWS) is seeking a Project Officer – ANROWS biennial conference and webinar program.
ANROWS convenes a biennial conference and webinar program as part of its knowledge translation and exchange (KTE) function. This role will be primarily responsible for supporting the delivery of the online webinar program and ANROWS’s 2022 National Conference. This will include program coordination; speaker, contractor and delegate management/liaison; budget management; promotion; stakeholder engagement; and logistical management of the online conference.
ANROWS aspires to be an innovative research organisation with authoritative leadership and high impact to support the National Plan to Reduce Violence against Women and their Children 2010–2022 (the National Plan). Our mission is to deliver relevant and translatable research evidence which drives policy and practice, leading to a reduction in the levels of violence against women and their children.
ANROWS is funded primarily by the Commonwealth and state and territory governments of Australia to assist them in achieving the National Plan’s vision of women and their children living free from violence and in safe communities.
As a national research organisation, ANROWS has three intersecting core functions: leadership, knowledge production, and knowledge translation and exchange.
ANROWS’s leadership function includes the production and promotion of Australia’s National Research Agenda to Reduce Violence against Women and their Children (ANRA) 2020–2022, building research capacity in this area and advocating for evidence-based policy and practice.
Through its knowledge production function, ANROWS produces evidence to guide Australian governments and practitioners in their work towards ending violence against women and their children.
The evidence ANROWS and others produce is translated from academic research reports into accessible resources that highlight the implications of research findings for evidence-based policy and practice. ANROWS recognises that knowledge production, translation and exchange is a multilateral process and that it has a pivotal role in the exchange of knowledge between its stakeholders.
This is a 1.0 FTE position (37.5 hours per week), reporting to the Director, Evidence to Action, and is located at the ANROWS national office in Sydney (Level 11, 31 Market Street, Sydney, NSW 2000). The appointment is from the commencement date until 30 June 2022, with the option to extend, subject to continued funding, beyond that date.
The salary range for this position is $80,545 to $85,457 per annum plus 9.5 per cent employer contributions to the employee’s chosen superannuation fund. ANROWS staff are entitled to four weeks annual leave, in addition to personal and sick leave.
