Moreton Bay, Australia Save the Children Australia Full time

Every person has the right to live in safety, and yet domestic and family violence remains a critical crisis reaching epidemic proportions in Australia. 54 Reasons is one of the largest providers of DFV refuge services in Queensland. This work is critical in providing families with opportunities to be safe from violence and reclaim their lives. Be part of this dynamic network of teams working together to deliver high quality support to vulnerable families._

**54 reasons is Australia’s leading child rights organisation - no ordinary not-for-profit.**

Proudly part of the Save the Children Australia Group and global movement, we’re here to make sure that everyone understands their rights. So that children and young people have their rights met and thrive, in all their diversity.

We champion the children, young people and families we work with. We are inspired by the curiosity and creativity of children and motivated by the love of those who care for them.

With the child’s voice at the centre, we provide quality services to children and their caregivers, advocating with them so that children develop, learn, and are connected, safe and confident. Our people are proudly local, reflective of the communities we serve - in every state and territory, and across regions, remote areas and capital cities.

**Where you come in**:
This new role is a part-time (8 days per fortnight) contract opportunity to June 2023, where you'll partner with children and their caregivers to assess needs, develop, and implement case plans, support transitions and promote the importance of safe and regulated environments through our Child Centred, Trauma Informed Framework.

**You will make an impact by**:

- Partnering with children and their caregivers as experts in their own lives and clients in their own right utilising a Child Rights Framework, seeking, and amplifying their voices
- Providing case management support (either short-term or medium-term) to children and their caregivers who have experienced domestic and family violence
- Facilitating individual and group activities that will support parent/child attachment and healthy development and transitions
- Enhancing child centred, trauma-informed practice in the region both within Save the Children and more broadly in the community
- Connecting families with the services they need and providing appropriate referrals

**Does this sound like you?**

**This role requires**:

- A Bachelor/Diploma of Social Work, Psychology or relevant Human Service Qualification and/or significant experience in a similar service
- Knowledge and understanding of domestic and family violence, including the impact on children.
- Strong understanding of child development and the impact of trauma on children
- Demonstrated experience working with children and young people from a child-centred framework
- Experience working with families from diverse cultural backgrounds.
- Strong teamwork and communication skills.
- Current drivers' licence.

**Working at 54 reasons is more than just a job.**

We are a learning organisation that invests in the development and wellbeing of our people. Our workforce is 680+ people strong, and proudly diverse, whether in race, ethnicity, gender, age, disability, sexuality, cultures and beliefs.

We are creative, connected and accountable, bringing energy, guts and ideas to all we do to champion children in Australia and partner with families, communities and partners to bring about change.

Our people work from both home and office, with important moments held in-person to foster belonging and support professional development. Our leave provisions include personal, ceremonial and family violence leave as well as the ability to purchase additional leave. Remuneration is benchmarked and we offer full non-profit salary packaging benefits.

Other benefits include:

- Award rate salary SCHADS 4.1 plus full salary packaging benefits.
- Festive leave in addition to regular leave benefits.
- Health and wellbeing support, including EAP.
- Monthly supervision sessions and individual learning plans to assist in your career development.
- Internal employment and development opportunities.
