SEEKING A ROLE WHERE YOU CAN REALLY MAKE A DIFFERENCE?


Tap into your innate ability to connect and support in a role that offers an opportunity to
make a genuine impact in the lives of others.

This rewarding role does require a

Add your empathetic, calm and approachable nature and you'll spend your days guiding and empowering those who need it most, our children and young people.


As a Youth Advisor, your
passion, creativity, sense of humour and five or more years of experience will be a valued addition to an already
amazing, dedicated team.

Matching your flexible and autonomous nature, you'll join your colleagues in person
once a week in our office in Ryde, then
work to your own schedule, either from home, or on client visits.

  • Experience in
    providing psychosocial support and targeted intervention to young people:
  • Expertise in
    connecting people with disability to the relevant agencies:
-
Registration with a professional industry body (AASW or APS)

  • Clear written and verbal
    communication skills:
  • An aptitude for
    working autonomously:
  • A
    current drivers' licence and comprehensively insured car
Reporting directly to a passionate and supportive CEO, your role entails:


  • Improving the mental health of children and young people at risk of Huntington's disease, or living with a family member affected
-
Delivering information sessions to schools, parents and carers
-
Organising group events to build connections and foster supportive relationships
-
Driving and leading youth counselling sessions
-

WHAT MAKES THIS ORGANISATION ONE YOU'D WANT TO WORK FOR?


Since 1975, Huntington's NSW & ACT has been a strong voice and advocate for better services for those affected by Huntington's Disease, a rare, inherited neurological disease.


This
part-time position offers extensive FBT benefits, meal and entertainment allowances, and is a chance to
build a meaningful career as you drive and grow the youth program and
acquire further skills with specialised Huntington's disease training.


Curious?
Do something that takes you out of the ordinary.

We're good people who find good people.
