- Motor Vehicle Packaging Options – to suit your lifestyle.
- Work/Life Balance - Enjoy flexible work arrangements, including hybrid home/office options, and accrue an additional day off each month (a bonus of 12 days per year) as a full-time employee.

- Ability to actively and respectfully engage and assess Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander families.
- Experience identifying and addressing child protection concerns.
- High level written and verbal communication, it's important to document our work.
- Current drivers license (pool cars are available so you don't need to use your own vehicle).
