Women in Aviation Australian Chapter (WAI Australia) is a national, volunteer‑led organisation committed to increasing the participation, retention, and leadership of women and girls in aviation, aerospace, and space. Our State Chairs deliver events, outreach, and community engagement across Australia — and we’re looking for a dedicated Events Co‑ordinator to help bring it all together.

About the Role

The Events Co‑ordinator will play a key role in strengthening our national operations by supporting State Chairs, maintaining a cohesive events calendar, and helping us collaborate effectively with partner organisations across the sector.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who loves organisation, communication, and community-building — and who wants to contribute to a mission that genuinely shifts the dial for women and girls in aviation.
