Key responsibilities include:
  • Providing high-quality leadership and clinical oversight to Allied Health staff in ACMHSN.
  • Driving service development and innovation in Allied Health practice.
  • Leading intersectoral liaison and representing Allied Health perspectives in strategic planning, policy development, and service evaluation.

You will need:
  • Extensive experience in, and comprehensive knowledge of, mental health care in a variety of settings with at least five years postgraduate clinical experience, either in mental health treatment or relevant transferrable clinical skills.
  • Highly developed interpersonal skills, including written and oral communication, negotiation and conflict resolution skills, and the proven ability to work constructively as part of a multidisciplinary team.
