The role of the Convenor is to facilitate the provision of restorative justice processes within Youth Justice. This involves engaging with the people most affected by a young person's offending and assisting them to determine an appropriate response to repair the harm, reintegrate young people into the community and reduce reoffending.

**The Convenor key responsibilities are**:

- Work effectively within a statutory environment to facilitate restorative justice processes with young people who have committed offences, victims and other relevant parties and complete all tasks consistent with legislative, policy and procedural requirements.
- Ensure that written and oral information and advice to courts, agencies and other stakeholders is in accordance with relevant statutory, legislative, policy and procedural requirements.
- Work collaboratively as part of a team, to achieve positive outcomes for victims, young people who have committed offences, their families and the community.
- Identify, liaise and maintain strong working relationships with relevant external stakeholders.
- Pro-actively work to ensure the use of culturally appropriate, collaborative and evidence-based restorative justice processes that align with Youth Justice strategic direction.
- Actively participate in a range of continuing professional development activities to continuously improve your ability to contribute to organisational goals, including training, supervision and accreditation.
- Contribute to a departmental culture that ensures sensitive and effective communication with people from Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander backgrounds as well as an appreciation of cultural protocols and an awareness of the impacts of historical policies and practices.
