About the new service


The Royal Commission into Victoria's Mental Health System has challenged us to think beyond incremental improvement to deliver a mental health system that helps all Victorians live their best lives.

In a region characterised by fragmentation, complexity, and access barriers, implementing the Greater Geelong and Borough of Queenscliffe (GGQ) Local Mental Health and Wellbeing Service is a key step in realising this goal.


The GGQ Local Mental Health and Wellbeing Service is delivered by a consortium of equal partners: Barwon Health, Watharoung Aboriginal Cooperative Ltd, Wellways Australia and ERMHA365.

The GGQ Local Service is underpinned by positivity, hope and inclusion.

No matter whether a consumer, carer or provider enters or seeks assistance via digital platforms, contact centre, or physical locations, the first engagement will always start with a simple question:
"Welcome, how can we help?" Drawing on established services, networks, and pathways, the GGq Local Services provides seamless integration between local, area and wellbeing services for the benefit of consumers, carers, and providers. This is supported through standardised assessment tools, treatment and support processes, care plans and care coordination, colocation of services and regional navigational pathways.

The three core elements of our service are people, purpose, and place.

We are seeking a highly motivated mental health professional who is capable of facilitating excellence in integrated, holistic health care, with the goal of improving outcomes for consumers, carers, and the wider community.


About the Role


The Contact Centre Navigators employed by Barwon Health, will provide empathic engagement and informed referral to ensure consumers with mental illness and/or drug and alcohol issues, receive courteous, efficient and clinically effective care.


A focus of this role is ensuring that the administration functions of the Locals Service support the smooth consumer journey and that a high standard of data is captured.
