  • Identify claims at risk of developing secondary psychological injuries while implementing appropriate strategic measures to support injured workers back to full functional capacity.
  • Undertake RTW visits and treater case conferences (both virtually and in person) when required to support recovery and RTW outcomes.
  • Apply a person-centered management approach focusing on injured workers' needs, by setting recovery goals and supporting them to achieve these.

We are looking for an enthusiastic and customer-focussed RTW Expert who has:

  • Workers Compensation scheme claims management experience, or significant RTW knowledge and experience.
  • Knowledge of physical and/or mental injury, or general personal injury management concepts relating to Victoria's Workers Compensation Scheme.
  • Excellent customer service skills and experience.
  • Time management, administrative, and organisational skills.
  • Experience in leading people, teams, or key initiatives, as well as coaching and mentoring skills.
  • Tertiary qualification in an appropriate discipline and/or demonstrated experience in a similar role is also ideal.

What We Can Offer You

  • Attractive remuneration packaging and flexible work arrangements, including work from home.
  • Paid parental leave.
  • Collaborative working environment – friendly, flexible, and supportive working environment which is built around great team support and rewarding opportunities.
  • Opportunities for ongoing education and development.
  • A dedication to your wellbeing through our peer support program, corporate health insurance discounts, and wellness programs.
  • Staff benefits including additional purchased leave, volunteer leave days, retail discounts, and more.
