The Benevolent Society's vision is to create a fair society where every Australian can live their best life. With a history of over 200 years, we have provided support to various groups including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians, children, young people, families, older individuals, carers, and people with disabilities.
As an independent, non-religious service provider, we empower individuals to live on their terms. We are dedicated to promoting reconciliation with Australia's First Nations people and strive for their economic, political, and social inclusion.
About the roleThe Team Leader-Lead Supervisor of the Functional Family Therapy – Child Welfare High Track (FFT-CW HT) program will oversee a team of 4 Therapists in Metropolitan Sydney. The role involves ensuring services are delivered effectively and in a culturally sensitive manner, following the program model.
FFT-CW HT is a proven family preservation program that targets young people (0-18 years old) and families in child protection settings. This initiative aims to enhance family dynamics and reduce risks, ultimately decreasing the number of children in care.
You will lead a team of Family Therapists, offering clear and focused leadership, as well as professional supervision. Collaboration with the program developers, The New York Foundling, is key to providing training and support for the team.
Duties:
- Provide regular supervision to Therapists focusing on child and/or family safety, review session notes and clinical practice within the model, and create professional development plans for each Therapist.
- Collaborate with the Manager to maintain high performance standards across the team and address staffing challenges.
- Lead weekly team clinical supervision to ensure adherence to the model and promote peer learning.
- Carry a caseload of 4 families.
- Monitor and assess the team's outcomes with families in consultation with an external FFT-CW consultant.
We are committed to helping individuals live their best life, including our employees. This includes:
- Salary Benefits - You can optimize up to $15,900 pa of your pre-tax salary for daily expenses before tax calculation, increasing your take-home pay.
- Motor Vehicle Packaging Options – Tailored to your lifestyle.
- Work/Life Balance - Enjoy flexible work arrangements, including hybrid home/office options, and earn an additional day off each month (12 bonus days per year) as a full-time employee.
- Recognition and Reward - Competitive remuneration, diverse recognition programs, and access to long service leave after 5 years.
- Wellness - Stay healthy with a Fitness passport, utilize our Employee Assistance Program, and acquire additional leave.
- Professional Development - We offer customized career development opportunities for all employees and volunteers to support growth and enrichment.
- Our Reconciliation Commitment - First Nations employees receive up to 10 days of ceremonial leave, the opportunity to contribute to reconciliation initiatives, and access cultural and professional development pathways.
Essential:
- You must have at least 5 years of experience in child protection.
- Hold a tertiary qualification in Social Work, Psychology, or a related discipline.
- People Leadership - Experience in building and maintaining high-performing teams and enhancing their capabilities.
- Practice Leadership - Passion for continuous improvement and implementing best practices.
- Flexible & Collaborative Approach – Lead an innovative team/program and engage stakeholders effectively.
- Comprehensive understanding of child protection issues, client vulnerabilities, trauma impact on child behavior, and development effects.
- Ability to prioritize and multitask in a fast-paced, evolving environment.
Highly desirable:
- FFT-CW High Track Clinical Training with 2 years of experience.
