Geelong, Australia Corrections Victoria Full time

Work in a team dedicated to helping people make positive changes to their lives.
- Full time, ongoing position based in Geelong
- Earn $92,332 - $104,762 per year (plus super) with yearly increases

Why we love this work
Evidence suggests that people who re-integrate into the community following a period of imprisonment require transitional support in order to reduce their risk of reoffending. When a person's risk profile allows it, community-based rehabilitation is more effective at addressing offending behaviour than time in custody.
In your work, you will hear another person's story. You will come to understand their world view. And you will hold them accountable for their decisions. You will be part of giving offenders a second chance to make a more positive contribution to the community.
Your job won't always be easy, but with a strong work ethic and a belief in what you're doing, you will be able to take pride in your work and will know what it's like to make a genuine difference in someone else's life.
Read about how you will be supported in your role with CCS
Advanced Practitioners manage a caseload of complex and high-risk individuals on court orders, many of whom have completed part of their sentence in custody. They draw on evidence-based frameworks to deliver dynamic case management practice with people who have complex needs and those who have committed serious offences.

**Some of your day-to-day responsibilities include**:

- conducting risk assessments
- preparing case plans
- providing interventions
- coordinating service providers and care teams
- address the underlying causes of offending
- leading and developing case management staff.
