Wellbeing Support Worker

3 months ago

Mareeba, Australia Lives Lived Well Full time

At Lives Lived Well, we’ve been treating and supporting people whose lives are affected by alcohol and other drugs for over 50 years. We also support people with mental health and gambling concerns and those transitioning from correctional centres. We’re growing fast and building a reputation as a trusted, innovative provider, focused on clinical excellence… and we’d love you to be part of it.

If you have compassion, the ability to work without judgment and share our belief in recovery, then join us and open up your career in human services.

About the service

In a peaceful area based in Mareeba (Cairns), Shanty Creek is our Indigenous alcohol and drug residential treatment and recovery program. It provides support to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander men and women, aged 18 years and over, who are experiencing alcohol or other drugs dependency or misuse and mental health concerns. The program is dedicated to acceptance, compassion, respect and trust. It is an environment where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander men and women can find solutions to their drug and alcohol problems. Shanty Creek provides a safe and supportive environment, to assist clients in reaching their goals and reduce the harm of drugs or alcohol.

This position is a "specified position" and Lives Lived Well considers that being an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander person is a genuine occupational requirement for this position under s 25 of the Anti-Discrimination Act 1991 (Qld).

Your opportunity

Working as a Casual Wellbeing Support Worker at our Shanty Creek residential alcohol and drug treatment centre, you’ll provide support and supervision to clients undertaking the six-week treatment program.

What does this mean?

Well, you’ll help to keep our clients emotionally safe while supporting, facilitating and monitoring activities of the program. You’ll assist with medications, and provide general help and support to clients during the evening, should they need it.

This is a role that has a big impact. You’ll witness the hard work our clients put in to change their lives for the better, helping them to learn new skills, to adapt and to set goals and achieve them. You’ll get experience straight up and hands on - of the work, the clients and what it takes to build a successful and rewarding career. All while being supported and guided by a team of humble humans who really care.

You’ll know that you’re leaving a positive wake when:

  • You’re able to manage the structured activities of the program
  • You’ve built positive relationships with your clients, enabling them to stick to the program and make positive change in their lives.
  • You’re able to navigate the challenges of new situations, creating solutions and adapting on the spot.

What you’ll bring

The service operates on a 24 hour rotating roster which includes a ‘sleepover’ shift, this means you will be expected to sleep onsite in your own secured space, to be available if residents need assistance overnight.

In terms of the role itself, it’s not as much about the technical expertise nor the number of degrees you have, it’s about who you are as a person and what you bring:

  • You’ll need to know how to set and maintain good boundaries - with clients, colleagues and yourself. What we do isn’t always easy, so taking care of yourself is most important
  • You’ll be comfortable working to a structure, but have the capacity to be flexible and navigate the unexpected.
  • You’ll be able to think on your feet, problem solve and handle pressure.
  • You’ll have a genuine desire to support people in making a positive difference to their lives.
  • You’ll be reliable, resilient, persistent and non-judgmental.

And importantly, you’ll live and breathe our values, which means:

  • You are humble, human and full of hope.
  • You show up and share.
  • You ask: Why not? And what’s next?
  • You leave a positive wake.

We believe that, through these values, we do our best work - for each other, for clients, and for the communities we work in. And it’s a promise we make to you about the kind of experience you will have working for us.

Why work for Lives Lived Well?

It’s about people, purpose, impact and growth.

We think you’ll love working with our talented people across services that are as diverse as the communities we work in. We’ve grown significantly, with no plans of slowing down.… giving you a real opportunity to go further

At Lives Lived Well, you can:

  • Grow as a person and as a professional, extending your knowledge and skills beyond the norm.
  • Be trusted with autonomy in a supportive, respectful environment.
  • Make a lasting difference - on clients, the community and a team that cares as much as you.

But it’s more than that.

You’ll join a curious team that thinks differently and seeks new ways. We look to the evidence. We explore new ideas. And when we reach “better”, we ask, “What’s next?” Which means you’ll need to be comfortable with change - you’ll enjoy variety, the agility, and the opportunity to achieve more, faster.

And while you support others, we’ll support you, including access to a range of training opportunities and wellness activities along with the opportunity to explore other careers at Lives Lived Well.

The salary range for this position is $37.35 to $40.05 per hour plus casual loading, applicable penalties and loadings.
