**About you**:
To be successful in this role you will;
- Hold a tertiary qualification in psychology, social work, behaviour analysis (e.g. as a BCBA), special education or a related field and registration with the relevant membership body (e.g. AHPRA) (essential).

- Have experience in developing, implementing, and monitoring Behaviour Support Plans that are evidence-based and trauma-informed.
- Have experience working collaboratively with a multidisciplinary care team, including carers, educators, teachers, case workers, clinicians, and allied health professionals to deliver quality outcomes for children and young people.
- Have awareness of the Education, Early Childhood, and/or Outside School Hours Care sectors (Beneficial but not essential)
