Programme Manager, Community Learning and Development

Wedu is building a world where half of all leaders are women. We enable women leaders in South and Southeast Asia to access leadership capabilities, a lifelong community, and plentiful capital. Since 2012, we have strengthened and sustained the unique leadership journeys of over 5,000 women from 29 countries across Asia by facilitating long-term mentorship, delivering leadership development training, convening support communities, and financing continuing education goals through Income Sharing Agreements. These women are inspiring individuals committed to changing the status quo. We believe this community of leaders — supported by gender equity allies from 94 countries around the world — has the power to achieve large-scale change.

In this role, you will be a key driver of Wedu’s Capability and Community Pillars, shaping and delivering leadership development experiences that equip women with the skills, confidence, and networks to lead transformative change. By advancing our strategic priorities of climate resilience, care work, and economic empowerment, you’ll ensure that our programmes and community engagement initiatives are inclusive, evidence-informed, and rooted in the lived realities of women across Asia. Your work will enable a growing cohort of women leaders to take action in their communities, supported by robust mentorship, peer networks, and flexible learning experiences, tailored to their lived realities.

In the short term, you’ll focus on strengthening and integrating climate-resilient, care-responsive, and entrepreneur-focused content across Wedu’s leadership programmes, while activating community platforms for mentorship and peer exchange. You’ll also play a lead role in launching and embedding pilot modules such as those on climate leadership and unpaid care work into our core offerings. In the long term, your work will help Wedu reach at least 1,000 women with tailored leadership pathways, strengthen local ecosystems in six countries, and shift narratives around gendered leadership—positioning Wedu as a regional leader in feminist, community-powered capacity-building.
