Western Plains Correctional Centre (Western Plains) is Victoria's newest maximum-security correctional facility, designed to house up to 1,248 people in custody.
Western Plains is a multi-purpose facility that adapts to the evolving needs of Corrections Victoria. It features purpose-built modern amenities including medical wards, a cultural centre and vocational training facilities.

Western Plains will open mid-2025 and Corrections Victoria are now recruiting key roles to help shape the future operations of the facility.
**About the role**
The Aboriginal Wellbeing Officer (AWO) role was established under the Victorian Aboriginal Justice Agreement, as a response to the findings of the 1991 Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody.

The role will participate in the case management of Aboriginal people, working with multi-disciplinary teams to support successful transition back to the community.
The AWO will understand case management and have a demonstrated understanding of the Victorian Aboriginal Community, both society and culture and the issues impacting on it.
**To be successful in this role, you will bring**:
- knowledge and understanding of the Victorian Aboriginal Community, both society and culture and the issues impacting on it.
- an ability to communicate sensitively and effectively with members of the Victorian Aboriginal community.
