The position will be required to adhere to local or regional rostering arrangements and other staffing management practices as directed.
- This role will be required to travel to service the courts across the broader Grampians region and will require travel between our main Ballarat and Horsham offices. _
**About you**
To be successful in this role, you will have:
- experience or knowledge of court processes, prosecutions or related areas
- an ability to provide human services in needs assessment and development of interventions
- capability to provide evidence-based advice and recommendations to the court that maximise offender responsiveness interventions
