- Experience working with children and families affected by domestic violence.
- Strong knowledge of child protection principles and mandatory reporting requirements.
- Ability to work independently and manage workloads efficiently.
- Proficiency in using case management systems and a good level of computer literacy.
- A current NT driver's license and the ability to obtain an Ochre Card and a criminal history check.
