You will develop, facilitate, and evaluate various community events and health and education programs designed to improve mental health literacy and community awareness of challenges faced by people with mental illness, in order to increase early identification and access to appropriate services.

You will work closely with our clinical team to understand the services provided by the Medicare Mental Health Centre, advocating our services to the wider community.

  1. A Diploma qualification in mental health or a related field
  2. Experience in a similar role working with people with mental health concerns
  3. Experience in planning, developing, and delivering high-quality education, training, and community awareness programs and activities
  4. Demonstrated interpersonal skills showing an ability and sensitivity to work with and engage a variety of different people and stakeholders
  5. Proven ability to work creatively, collaboratively, and effectively as a member of a team

  7. Confidence in using IT, including social media applications, and website maintenance
  8. Excellent verbal communication and written skills, including the ability to identify potential funding sources and write grant submissions
  9. Eligibility for a Working With Children Check (WWCC) and NDIS worker screening clearance
