About the Business Unit

- Administering of assessment tools where required.
- Completing comprehensive case notes in a timely fashion using the departments information systems.

About You
- Demonstrated knowledge of/understanding of the link between AOD use and offending.
- Experience working with Forensic AOD and/or dual diagnosis clients.
- Demonstrated knowledge and skills delivering individual and/or group work interventions including ability to manage group dynamics and behaviour.

- Minimum qualification in Certificate or Diploma IV AOD, Community Services, or
- A relevant qualification in social work, a related human services discipline, criminal justice or criminology with work experience in related field (desirable).
- A current valid driver's licence is required.
This is a unique group you won't get access to anywhere else which is why we need practitioners who are not only driven by complexity but have optimism for change.
How We Support and Reward You
Our work can be demanding so we offer comprehensive training and support.
- A specialised induction program for new client-facing staff (including foundation, theory, and mentored on-the-job training)
- Exposure to national and international experts in forensic work.
