**Join an innovative program delivering intensive early intervention and care**:

- **Casual role based in Richmond**:

- **Competitive sector remuneration + access to salary packaging benefits**

**About the role**:
We have a casual opportunity for a skilled and Bachelor qualified Infant Mental Health Consultant to join our Cooke Court Uniting SEED (Specialist Early Education and Development) Service located in Richmond.

Be part of an innovative program delivering an intensive early intervention and care approach to equip vulnerable children with the learning and developmental support they need as they start their education journey.

**What’s on offer**:
In addition to receiving a salary and superannuation plus the ability to increase your take-home pay by accessing up to $15,900 in salary packaging benefits, we also offer a 60% staff discount on childcare.

**About you**:
As an Infant Mental Health Consultant of this research replication site, you will have significant experience in direct clinical care within an infant mental health service or similar.

Holding a bachelor’s degree in a mental health discipline as well as a post graduate degree or extensive training in infant and mental health, you will have demonstrated skills in leadership and supporting your colleagues in everyday practice.

**About the program**:
Our Cooke Court Service aims to reproduce the results of an Early Years Education research program with our partners The Parkville Institute, the Australian Government Department of Education, the Victorian Government and Yarra City Council.

The results of the original trial showed significant improvement in children’s cognitive skills including language and speech, resilience, social and emotional development.

This service works with a multidisciplinary team of researchers to ensure the model is operating with fidelity and operates with lower child to staff ratios, a maximum of 48 children attending 5 hours per day Monday to Friday.

If you’d like to know more or arrange an informal tour and chat, please contact **Mandy Hurdle, Senior Manager Early Learning Operations on 0419 334 641.**
