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.
You will also help to shape Anika's key messaging and narratives.
