Launceston Women’s Shelter
Careers with LWS
Want to make a difference? A way forward starts by working together.
Bring your skills, experience and perspective to an organisation supporting women’s safety, choice and independence in Northern Tasmania.
Work with purpose
At Launceston Women’s Shelter, our team provides supported crisis accommodation, women’s support and family support.
Every role contributes to that work, whether through supporting women and children directly or helping the organisation operate effectively. It’s work that calls for care, sound judgement and respect for each woman’s circumstances and choices.
Help shape what comes next
With 50 years of local experience behind us, LWS is building stronger community connections and working towards a broader range of support beyond accommodation.
Our people have an important role in that progress. We value practical knowledge, fresh perspectives and a willingness to share ideas, learn from others and contribute to how our services develop.
Choice, dignity and empowerment guide our approach.
We look for people who listen without judgement, respect privacy, work collaboratively and bring professionalism and compassion to their role. People who understand that meaningful support starts with recognising each woman’s right to determine her own next steps.
