A strategic evolution

 

The Victorian Women’s Trust has a long history of conducting targeted research to drive gender equality. Today, we are evolving this work into a feminist research residency designed to amplify our impact and provide the structural authority required for national advocacy.

 

The 2026 Residency is a fixed-price consultancy ($25,000 exc. GST) for an Early Career Researcher (or equivalent) to synthesis existing research and devise a range of practical, action-orientated circuit breakers that will ensure women, girls, and gender-diverse people are not left behind or overlooked in the digital age.

 

Applications open: Tuesday 10 March, 2026

 

To allow candidates time to develop a rigorous proposal, we have released the full Expression of Interest (EOI) brief ahead of the application opening.

Submissions will be accepted via EthicalJobs starting 10 March. Closing date: Midnight, Friday 10 April, 2026.
