We are an independent, non-religious service provider which supports people to live life their way.

As a Mental Health Case Manager, you will work with your clients to develop healthy coping mechanisms, instill emotional strategies to manage behaviour and make suitable referrals.
You will promote a culture where each young person’s point of view and preferences for recovery are recognised, respected and understood. An important part of this is building bridges between the young person and their community including school, medical services and psychological services.
You may also co-facilitate group work for example Tune into Teams, iRespect (male DV group), Loves Bites, Drumming etc
**Duties**
- Engage Young people aged 9-18 and their parents/care givers using appropriate assessment and risk minimisation processes.

- Coordinate with other service providers including government departments and agencies, schools, health services, GP’s and allied health providers to ensure services are delivered.
- Assist clients to engage with wrap around services directly, as appropriate.
**Our Benefits**
We support people to live their best life. That includes you, our employee. A ‘**best life’** is unique to everyone and can change as life changes:
- **Salary Benefits** -You can package up to $15,900 pa of your pre-tax salary to pay for everyday expenses before income tax is calculated, meaning you take home even more pay

- **Wellness -** Stay fit with a Fitness passport, utilise our Employee Assistance Program, and even purchase additional leave.
- **Professional Development -** We tailor career development opportunities to all employees and volunteers for career enrichment, fulfilment, and growth.
- ** Our Reconciliation Commitment -** Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander employees are entitled up to 2 days paid plus up to 10 days unpaid cultural leave, as well as the option to be a voice on **reference networking groups**, the opportunity for cultural and professional development that supports career pathways and your social and emotional wellbeing.
**Skills and Experience**
As an experienced Mental Health Support Worker, Case Manager, Social Worker or Psychologist you will have
- Understanding of complex trauma and its impact on child development & wellbeing
- Holistic person centred, strengths-based approach to achieve lasting change
- Capacity to work autonomously; juggle competing demands, your time and problem solve on the fly
