Job Description
As a WheelEasy intern, you will actively contribute to a project aimed at assessing and enhancing the accessibility of places, in both the public and private arenas, in specific locations all over Australia.
Your role will involve building and expanding the WheelEasy web-app by adding accessibility information in your local area or city. In this position, you will gather accessibility information, and relevant photographs, that you find online, on individual places, assess the information for relevance, and then create draft listings for those places to submit to the place owners. Additionally, because WheelEasy is as much about providing ideas about activities as it is about individual places, you will be involved in the gathering of info about things the whole family or group can do together, for a day out or on a trip.
Why Join Us
WheelEasy offers students and altruistic volunteers a chance to help people with mobility impairments get out and enjoy life (students are encouraged to apply and will be guided through the process to complete their university placements with us).
This is a home/office-based role where you can contribute to a worthwhile cause with no specific training requirements. What we do require most is an empathy and understanding that everyone deserves to be included in life.
Although all the work is done remotely, we want you to be part of our team through more detailed briefings and regular check-ins on Zoom.
Although the position is unpaid, there are opportunities to join the team on business trips, with all costs covered. You may also have the chance to meet key figures at conferences and general meetings.
