About Homeward Bound

Homeward Bound is a ground-breaking, global leadership initiative set against the backdrop of Antarctica, which aims to heighten the influence and impact of women in making decisions that shape our planet.

Since its inception, Homeward Bound has exploded, affecting the lives of thousands of women and reaching the awareness of hundreds of millions of people worldwide. It has attracted sponsorship from some of Australia’s most iconic brands and is featured in media and news outlets including The NY Times, Forbes, BBC, ABC, Channel 10 and much, much more.

• In conjunction with the CEO, manage annual organisational budgets and project budgets, including tracking expenditure against budget.
• Manage an external bookkeeper

• Experience in managing projects and teams come up with a demonstrated ability to plan and prioritise
• Demonstrated ability to collate and synthesise data for reporting
• Understanding of and commitment to improving the challenges facing women in leadership
• Experience working in a not for profit or social enterprise environment is a plus
