About Our Collective Practice
Our Collective Practice builds the knowledge, narrative, and power needed to center girls’ activism across movements, sectors, and culture change efforts. As a hub for learning, experimentation, and collaboration, we work to strengthen and connect the ecosystem in ways that remain deeply accountable to girls and young feminists. Our commitment is rooted in their safety, dignity, and freedom — and in an unshakeable belief in the dreams, resistance strategies, and power they bring to shaping a more just world.

About the Role
This role will begin as a six-month, full-time consulting contract as Our Collective Practice navigates a period of organizational and structural transition. The intention is for this role to move into a full-time staff position once these structures are finalized. More information will be shared on this structure during interviews with the top candidates.

The Grantmaking, Knowledge & Learning Manager will serve as a central connector and strategist across Our Collective Practice’s growing portfolio of grantmaking, research, and learning initiatives. This role will integrate grantmaking and knowledge stewardship through thoughtful project management, documentation, and coordination—ensuring that our funding strategies are aligned with our mandate and informed by ongoing learning, and that our knowledge development efforts advance movement building, narrative power, and the dreams and resistance of girls and young feminists globally.

As a growing, two-year-old organization, this is an exciting opportunity to join a small, dynamic team at a moment of expansion—helping to deepen and strengthen core grantmaking, narrative, and knowledge practices while contributing to a collaborative, care-centered organizational culture. Working closely with the Director, team members, researchers, and collaborators, this role will lead grantmaking, strengthen project delivery, foster cross-project learning, and support the smooth implementation and completion of key initiatives.

Qualifications & Experience
● Minimum 5 years experience with grantmaking, managing projects, knowledge production, or research initiatives within feminist, social justice, or movement-building contexts.
● Proven experience managing grantmaking processes that center community needs, local contexts, and movement priorities.
● Demonstrated experience leading or coordinating research projects, with strong analytical, writing, and publication skills.
● Demonstrated knowledge of Global South feminist thought, decolonial methodologies, and movement-rooted research practices.
● Experience working directly with girls, young feminists, and/or intergenerational movements—especially in the Global South or Majority World.
● Ability to manage multiple workstreams, coordinate with diverse teams, and keep complex projects on track.
● Strong interpersonal and facilitation skills, with experience collaborating across geographies and identities.
● A high degree of self-direction, organizational skills, and comfort working remotely.
● Multilingual, with proficiency in one or more languages in addition to English (e.g., Spanish, Arabic, French, Portuguese).

About the Research

Artificial intelligence (AI) has rapidly become embedded in everyday decision-making—shaping access to jobs, credit, healthcare, information and even personal autonomy—yet its development and deployment are far from neutral. Gendered impacts surface through a range of interconnected harms, including biased recruitment systems; stereotyping in feminised and racialized design of voice interfaces; and evident gender-based gaps in AI literacy and the “missing women” across design, deployment, and leadership in the tech sector. Harms are intensified by intersectional factors—race, age, class, language, and migration status—creating feedback loops that amplify pre-existing inequalities. From non-consensual synthetic image abuse to its use in recruitment, from datafication of sexual and reproductive health decisions to its application in a welfare setting, AI can both mirror and magnify old misogyny.

As regulators attempt to respond to AI’s rapid evolution, there is an urgent need to embed gender justice and intersectional equality into governance frameworks from the outset. This doctoral scholarship offers a unique opportunity to shape that conversation. Rather than simply mitigating risks, regulation can be a proactive tool for promoting fairness and equality across intersecting identities. With AI governance still in its formative stages, regulatory approaches can be designed to not only prevent harm but also harness AI’s potential to advance women’s rights and empowerment. The UTS Chair in Gender and the Law invites scholars to present a proposal for a 3-year doctoral research project that explores innovative approaches to regulating AI through an intersectional feminist lens, addressing algorithmic bias, combating compounded discrimination and ensuring that governance.

Who is eligible?

Applicants must have completed a Master by Research Degree or a Bachelor Degree with first class honours, or be regarded by the University as having an equivalent level of attainment.

Applicants will first formally apply to undertake a Doctor of Philosophy degree with the Law Faculty;

The Faculty of Law will rank accepted applicants for consideration for the Gender, Technology and the Law Doctoral Scholarship;

An applicant will need to be enrolled as a full-time student upon commencement of the Scholarship, or as a part-time student in the circumstance that the student has reasons acceptable to the University that preclude a full-time study for part or all of the course of study.
