About the organisation

Organisation Name : Women's Health East

Women’s Health East (WHE) is the women’s health promotion agency for the Eastern Metropolitan Region (EMR) of Melbourne. We are an independent feminist organisation focused on women’s wellbeing and equality across seven Local Government Areas (LGAs) – Yarra Ranges, Knox, Maroondah, Manningham, Monash, Whitehorse and Boroondara.

Women’s Health East is one of nine regional and three state-wide women’s health organisations that make up the Victorian women’s health sector. Women’s health services across Victoria promote good health and wellbeing for Victorian women. They apply an expert gender lens to health issues and systems to influence the underlying contributors to women’s health and wellbeing and improve outcomes for women.

We are an active member of the Women’s Health Services Council, supported by our peak body Gender Equity Victoria (GEN VIC). We work closely with state and local governments, health and community organisations, and other community partners with a role in improving health outcomes for women. GEN VIC lead a consortium of women’s health services called the Action for Gender Equality Partnership (AGEP) which is a designated provider supporting the implementation of the Gender Equality Act.

We counteract gendered health inequities by designing and delivering health promotion programs to address the social determinants that intersect with gender and impact on women’s health and wellbeing. We break down barriers so that Victorian women have access to tailored, gendered health information and healthcare choices.

The position is full time and offers flexible working arrangements including work from home. To view the position description, see www.whe.org.au
