About Cairns and Cape York:

Cairns is a tropical paradise where the rainforest meets the reef and is the only place in the world where two world heritage-listed sites can be found side-by-side. The community of Aurukun is located on the north-west coast of the Cape York Peninsula, 178km (2hrs 30mins) by road south of the mining town of Weipa and 811km (11hrs) from Cairns.

This is an exciting opportunity to work with a not-for-profit Aboriginal-owned business, providing outreach psychology services to Aboriginal children and families in Far North Queensland. If you are passionate about making a difference in the lives of children and families, we encourage you to apply for this role.
