  • Support customers in addressing non-vocational barriers and developing their skills and job readiness;
  • Develop and deliver training relevant to the field, and consultancy with other service providers;
  • Maintain effective relationships with staff and other agencies;
  • Problem solve complex presenting co-morbidities through one-on-one counselling intervention;
  • Work effectively with culturally diverse clients, employers, and staff;
  • Employ strategies to resolve conflict effectively;
  • Hold a current driver's licence and a minimum Bachelor Degree or higher qualification in Behavioural Sciences, Psychology, Social Work, or Mental Health Counselling.

A competitive salary of $60,000-$80,000 per annum will be negotiated commensurate with skills and experience. As a public benevolent institution, we can offer a portion of the salary through tax-effective salary packaging.

We value excellent customer service, integrity, and honesty in our employees. We promote a positive team culture where high performance can thrive. If you have a genuine passion for working with those in need, are results-focused, and can contribute to a strong team, we encourage you to submit your application.

We are an inclusive, equal opportunity employer and welcome applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, applicants from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, and applicants who have a disability. Our commitment to creating a safe environment for children and young people in the delivery of our services is reflected in our policies and practices.
