Join our Team
At Karinya House, we believe in making a difference for women in our community and for generations to come. We believe that every woman who is pregnant or parenting should be surrounded by care, compassion and the practical support she needs. We believe that, with the right support, every woman has the strength to make change in her life.
We are a small, specialised and grassroots organisation. Working from a social justice perspective, we are non-aligned and non-affiliated with any religion or political views and do not judge. We enable and support; and treat our team as we would the women we walk alongside, recognising the unique skills of each member of our close-knit team.
Who we are looking for:
- Individuals of diverse backgrounds who are committed to giving back to their community, by improving outcomes for women who are pregnant and parenting.
- A commitment to working from a Trauma-Transformative Practice framework.
- If you are someone who is respectful, caring, and flexible, someone who is driven by impact, values and a desire to see change in your community – then Karinya House is the place for you.
What Karinya House Offers:
- An opportunity to work from a social justice framework, within a small, specialised, grassroots, well regarded Canberra organisation.
- An organisation that is not aligned to any religious and political perspectives.
- An opportunity to make a direct impact in the community, by empowering and supporting women who are pregnant or early parenting.
-
A role within an inclusive, diverse, caring and compassionate team. Where our team members are treated in the same way we treat the women we walk alongside – with respect and compassion.
-
Access to generous salary packaging options.
- Free on-site parking.
