For over 140 years, Berry Street has adapted to a changing world, and we will continue to adapt to achieve our purpose. We believe children, young people and families should be safe, thriving and hopeful. Our Vision for 2026: Together we will courageously change lives and reimagine service systems. We look forward to working with our staff, carers, partners, supporters and government, to ensure children, young people and their families can create the future they imagine for themselves.

**The Opportunity**

This is an exciting unique opportunity to help continue Berry Street’s vision to reimagine residential care. Berry Street recently conducted a strategic review of its Residential Care Program. This has resulted in range of projects designed to improve carers and young people’s day-to-day experiences. These projects span across the organisation into areas such as Human Resources, Learning and Development and Therapeutic Programs. One key project is to implement a Teaching Family Model informed practice framework across all residential homes. The Teaching Family Model (TFM) is an evidence-based model of care which is focused on teaching pro social skills and self determination to young people.

We believe the residential carer worker is a key agent to improving outcomes for our young people. The practice framework will support in upskilling our residential care workers as well as provide consistent trauma informed approach for our young people.

There are two positions available to begin this important work, both Residential Care Practice Leaders are responsible for supporting the implementation of the practice framework across the Berry Street regions. The role will focus on training, coaching and providing consultation to House Supervisors as well as delivering training to all our residential carers. We are seeking individuals who want to inspire others, they must be self-driven with a demonstrated desire to create systemic and cultural change in the OoHC system.

These roles sit within the established Teaching Family Model Leadership team.

**Key Responsibilities**
- Implement the Practice Framework into Residential Care across Berry Street
- Provide initial and on-going training to all Residential carers
- Provide on-going practice support through coaching and mentoring to House Supervisors across multiple regions to support the implementation of the practice framework
- Manage Program data collection

**About you**

We are seeking self-driving individuals with a demonstrated desire to create systemic and cultural change in the OoHC system. You will have sound experience working with young people who live with the impacts of trauma and neglect. You will inherently inspire those who care for our young people through a thoughtful and proactive approach to leadership and coaching. Being self-motivated and driven will come easily to you as well as having a keen sense of professional development.

**The Benefits**
- Additional salary packaging available for meals/accommodation.
- Flexible work arrangements and generous leave conditions.
- Access to the Employee Assistance Program (EAP), including access for staff members’ immediate family.
