The opportunity
Join the board of Anika Legal, an award-winning not-for-profit legal service that is redefining how free legal assistance and housing support is delivered in Australia. We have two board positions available, and are seeking finance and NFP management experts.
Founded by Victorian of the Year, Noel Lim, Anika has become one of Australia’s most innovative community legal centres — combining technology, education, and social enterprise to close the justice gap and advance housing justice.
As a Board Director, you’ll play a critical role in guiding Anika’s next stage of growth, helping scale a proven model that doubled the impact of each employed lawyer, delivered free legal assistance to 1300+ renters, and shaped housing policy.
About Anika Legal
At Anika Legal, we believe everyone deserves a safe and secure home.
Imagine living in a home that made you sick, having to choose between paying rent or eating, or living in constant fear of becoming homeless. That is the reality for most of the 7 million renters in Australia who are denied a safe home.
Anika Legal is a free, non-profit legal service for renters that empowers renters to thrive in safe homes.
Through casework, innovation and systemic advocacy, we support our clients and fight for a fair housing system so that every renter can live in a safe, secure, affordable home that supports their quality of life.
Anika Legal is committed to building a team that is as diverse as the community we serve.
Our team is better with people from diverse backgrounds and lived experiences who work together to impactfully create access to justice. We believe in fostering an inclusive and equitable workplace for people of all gender identities, sexual orientations, cultural and linguistic backgrounds and abilities. We strongly encourage Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island people, people who are culturally and linguistically diverse, people who are LGBTQIA+, disabled people and people of mature age to apply.
