Community

Meet women leaders in tech across Australia and New Zealand.

Founded in 2017 as a meetup and coaching group, this community is designed to break down the barriers to promotion for women in Tech.

Since then it has grown into a community drawing members from all over Australian and New Zealand.

Slack Community

Our Slack group provides the networking, coaching and mentoring women often miss out on in their organisations. It gives visibility of role-models, successful female leaders in tech, paving the way for other women and showing them what they too can accomplish.

Mentoring Program

We provide coaching for those difficult questions that we often face and don’t have anywhere to turn. We're excited to announce our formal mentoring program is coming soon.

Monthly Events

Our Meetups bring content, resources and skills needed to succeed as a technical leader. Most of our speakers come from the TLL community.

Job Postings

We are a trusted network to help members find their next opportunity. Companies and managers are vouched for, salaries are transparently posted.

“TLL is an essential community to belong to for any aspiring tech individual. Incredibly inclusive, supportive and practical help to get your career started or boosted. I so wish something like this was around when I started my career in tech. I just love connecting new people with TLL and seeing them engage with the community.”

“The support of this community contributed to me changing the way that I think about role changes and my career. These amazing people also helped me to value myself as a leader. I value the excellent advice provided to anyone who requests it, and I am confident this is a safe space for me to both ask for and to offer help.”
