- A genuine passion for mentoring and teaching life skills

What You'll Do

- Be a stable, supportive presence in the lives of young people
- Help develop their life skills, confidence, and independence
- Work through tough times together, providing emotional and practical support
- Advocate for their needs and wellbeing as part of a wider care team
- Collaborate with Case Managers and community services to support long-term outcomes

Why You'll Love Working with this organisation

- Paid 3-week induction - get the tools and training you need to succeed
- 6 weeks of annual leave - because you deserve balance
- Annual bonus - up to $5,000 based on your years of service
- Salary packaging - make the most of your take-home pay
- Above-award guaranteed weekly income - enjoy financial stability
- Career development - ongoing training and internal promotion opportunities

Your Training Journey

You'll begin with a comprehensive 3-week induction program (classroom, online and on-the-job training), preparing you with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to succeed.

Note: Offers start on a casual basis during induction, with permanent roles offered once you complete the induction program.

This isn't just a job. It's a purpose. A chance to show up when it matters most.

Are you ready to take the next step in your Youth Work journey?

We look forward to receiving your application.
