GOOD CAUSE: Working for Movember, youll help turn ideas (and moustaches) into millions for mens health. Every bit we raise changes the face of mens health by funding research, improving treatments, and supporting programs that help save lives. Were even shaping government policies on mens health worldwide. By meeting directly with lawmakers, and helping them understand how more investment on mens health benefits not just men, but all the communities they serve. GOOD VIBES: We love weekends. Thats why our Fridays finish early for nine months of the year. But we also love our office vibe. Because here, it always feels like something big is about to happen. Be it an office-wide surprise birthday party (with cake!) or an open invite for all to hit the pub. Come the hairy season, the energy cranks up. Were talking celebrity visits. Live stunts on-site for TV and radio. And when we hit a fundraising milestone, the office gong might even go off. But, for those who prefer calm, no probs: hybrid working means you work where you feel best. GOOD CREW: Spoiler alert: were a no-ego, all-impact crew. That means everyone gets a say, from new starters to those leading the charge. Collaboration over hierarchies, curiosity over rigid process. And its true across all our offices worldwide. We work as one, sharing expertise and celebrating wins. All in the name of making the biggest impact across the globe. United, we Mo. We offer: Flexible hybrid working from home and our modern Richmond office Finish work at 2pm on Fridays (DecAug) NFP salary packaging (pay less tax) 13 weeks paid parental leave and 5 weeks annual leave Fun & collaborative culture with employee social events Free Headspace subscription and other wellbeing initiative Relaxed dress code Boy, do we know the feeling of being judged. (Over how we look, and other things that shouldnt matter.) Being different is how we started. And its also helped us raise $1 billion for mens health. So, we know the power of diverse experiences, skills and perspectives. And another impressive number is our WGEA gender pay gap: it sits at a big, fat, round 0%. If youve got the relevant skills and the right attitude, let nothing stand in your way of firing off your application. Movember is stronger when Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are part of our crew. We want you to feel supported in exploring opportunities with us. Thats why before applying, we invite you to yarn with Raymond Rosendale, Australian Indigenous Programs Manager, in a virtual catchup to talk about the role, our community work, or just to share ideas. Do you want to DO GOOD? If so, wed love to hear from you. #J-18808-Ljbffr
