Register as a Candidate

Any woman who is interested in being considered for a government board appointment can now register.

Opportunity across the board

Diverse boards drive organisational performance. 

The BoardLinks database connects Australia’s industry leading women with opportunities to be considered for Australian Government board appointments. The database is used by the Australian Government to source candidates for appointment to Australian Government boards. 

Achieving gender balance on boards is widely recognised as a commercial imperative. Companies with female representation on their boards outperformed others by 8.7 per cent over five years. The Australian Government is committed to achieving its gender diversity target of women and men each holding at least 40 per cent of Government board positions and women holding overall 50 per cent of Government board positions. BoardLinks is key in supporting the Government to achieve this target.

  • Gender Diversity Target

    The Government is committed to women holding 50 per cent of Government board positions overall with at least 40 per cent representation of both men and women on individual boards.

  • The Office for Women

    The Office for Women works across Government to deliver policies and programmes to advance gender equality and improve the lives of Australian women.
