**The Opportunity**
The IFYS Child Protection Residential Care Programs support children and young people needing a safe, dependable, and nurturing living environment. Reporting to the Case Manager, Youth Care Specialists deliver day-to-day care to young people in the Residential Care house.
A typical day may include supporting young people to manage challenging behaviors, planning or attending activities, and following daily routines to promote life-skills development. You will complete case notes and admin tasks daily, as well as helping to maintain a clean and safe environment.
**What's on Offer**
Competitive hourly rates: $46.69 (casual base), $51.36 (afternoon shift), $52.29 (night shift), $65.36 (Saturday shift), $84.04 (Sunday shift). Sleepover allowance: $57.99. Not-for-profit salary packaging options available. No rostered 24-hour shifts. Dedicated on-call team for after-hours support. Training opportunities including Therapeutic Crisis Intervention training and Preventing Child Sexual Exploitation and Sanctuary training.
**Requirements**
You must be flexible, adaptable, and open to learning. Working with young people displaying highly complex and challenging behaviors requires building rapport quickly and remaining non-judgmental. You should have resilience and good professional boundaries. Comfortable with computers and completing admin tasks required. Candidates with transferable skills from working with vulnerable people are strongly encouraged to apply.
