Adelaide CBD, Australia Employment Options Inc Trading As Youth Options Full time

Our ability to belong and live with purpose is intrinsically linked to our capacity to learn, earn and live. But with more than one million young Australians currently unemployed, and additional barriers for the more marginalised, some people need greater support than others to fully participate in the workforce.

For more than 30 years, Youth Options has empowered marginalised young people in South Australia to transform their lives and lead a life of purpose.

Being sustainably employed is more challenging for young people who lack adequate resources and support networks. Learning difficulties, disability, mental illness, poverty, substance abuse, absence of positive role models and the influence of generational unemployment or traumas at home can also make it disproportionately harder.

Youth Options help people aged 14 to 30 to build their capacity to set and achieve their goals for a thriving future. We do this by nurturing trusted partnerships to help each person:

- overcome their barriers
- realise their own potential
- safely shift self-limiting beliefs and behaviours, and
- access the tools and support they need to explore and shape the future they imagine.

From alternative learning centres to signature services such as the entrepreneurial “BizAbility” program, and “Pathfinder” which harnesses the power of gamification, Youth Options has a proud history of helping to create a world where every person can thrive.

Whether we are working with a student struggling to stay in high school, or a young person who hasn’t found their place in the workforce for some years, our person-centred approach can help them craft their best life.

We have an exciting opportunity for a high performing dedicated trainer, social worker or youth worker to join our Youth Space team using their creative flair to:

- Facilitate high quality experiential learning with young people individually and in groups as they develop projects in a workshop environment
- Support or deliver case management in accordance with Employment Options' policy and DfE guidelines
- Build engaging, positive professional relationships with young people to mentor their skill development and strengths
- Support young people to overcome personal challenges working within a trauma informed practice.
- Minimum qualification or equivalent experience and/or Certificate IV in Youth Work/Social Work
- Desire to work with young people using an experiential learning model
- Be innovative and creative with practical skills to share
- Ability to develop flexible approaches to ensure young people can achieve positive educational and social outcomes
- Current drivers’ licence, WWWC and RAN-EC

Youth Options is an equal opportunity employer. People from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander descent and people with disabilities are encouraged to apply.
