We're seeking an experienced Child Protection Specialist to join our leadership team as part of our ongoing commitment to safeguarding children.

You'll have proven experience in putting this knowledge into practice within organizations, ideally at scale.

To succeed in this role, you'll need a relevant degree qualification in early childhood education, social work, psychology, or welfare, and experience in completing investigations or similar investigatory work. You'll also require strong analytical skills, an active Blue Card, and a willingness to undergo a police check.
