About Red Nose

Red Nose is a national charity working to save little lives through research and education, while also providing compassionate support to families impacted by the death of a baby or child. For over 40 years, we have been the leading authority on safe sleep and pregnancy advice, and we remain a trusted source of bereavement care for families across Australia.

Our Bereavement Services team delivers free, specialised support to anyone affected by pregnancy, infant or child loss. This includes counselling, peer support, support groups, our 24/7 Support Line, and community-based programs.

About the Role

We are seeking a Clinical Supervisor to join our Bereavement Services team. Reporting to the National Counselling Manager, this role provides clinical leadership and supervision to our counsellors, ensuring families receive the highest quality support during their grief journey.

In this role, you will:

• Provide individual supervision and mentoring to bereavement counsellors.
• Support professional growth through reflective practice, case reviews, and targeted training.
• Deliver education and training sessions internally and externally.
• Maintain a small client caseload, modelling best practice in grief and bereavement care.
• Collaborate with health professionals, hospitals, and community organisations to promote Red Nose services.

About You

You are a qualified professional with a degree in psychology, social work, counselling, or a related field, and hold registration with a recognised professional body such as PACFA, AASW, APS, ACA or AHPRA.

• Experience working in hospital settings or in collaboration with health professionals
• Familiarity with client management systems and evidence-based practice models

It will also be an advantage if you have completed additional training in bereavement counselling or supervision, or if you have experience delivering grief and loss education.

This role requires current Police and Working with Children Checks, and a willingness to occasionally travel interstate or work flexibly outside standard hours.
