About the Department

eSafety is Australia's online safety regulator, working to protect Australians from online harms and build a safer digital environment. Led by an independent Commissioner and supported by the ACMA, eSafety partners with government, industry and community organisations to tackle issues ranging from cyberbullying and image-based abuse to emerging technology-driven risks.

This role sits within the Technology-Facilitated Abuse (TFA) Support Service, a specialist national service helping frontline workers and domestic, family and sexual violence (DFSV) services recognise and respond to the misuse of technology, from digital tracking and surveillance to coercive control. The Service contributes directly to the National Plan to End Violence against Women and Children 2022-2032.

About the Role

You'll build and maintain relationships with service providers, peak bodies and community organisations, and represent eSafety at forums, working groups, conferences and sector events.

You'll lead consultations, workshops and co-design activities, then turn what you hear into insights that shape eSafety's resources, tools and support services. Working across policy, operational and service delivery teams, you'll help translate sector intelligence into practical guidance that strengthens frontline capability and improves outcomes for victim-survivors.

Please note that this role involves regular exposure to distressing subject matter relating to DFSV and online harm. Wellbeing support, including EAP, is provided.
