Summary
- Work within a values-driven, progressive organisation.

About the Opportunity
If you are looking for variety and connection in your work, this space provides an opportunity for no two days to be the same with relational practice driving many of our outcomes. In this unique role, you will step outside the traditional mental health space and focus on delivering and supporting the team to implement practical interventions rather than clinical assessments. You'll play a pivotal role in delivering efficient, effective, and hands-on therapeutic services, with plenty of opportunities to connect and engage in fun activities with young people. Alongside leadership opportunities, you’ll also be responsible for conducting thorough assessments of young people’s needs and circumstances, allowing you to create personalised care plans in close collaboration with young people and their care team. Your role will also involve coordinating referrals, navigate complex service systems, and facilitate connections to both tertiary and community-based mental health services. You’ll also work alongside various internal stakeholders in Frontyard to ensure that the best outcomes can be achieved. This position will receive clinical/professional support from through the ALERT leadership team. Operational leadership onsite will sit with Frontyard.

- Has a Nursing or Allied Health qualification with minimum 7 years’ experience in relevant acute/community setting.
- Is eligible for registration/membership with AHPRA.
- Has previous experience in a similar or related role including working within a care coordination framework with people with complex psychosocial needs.
- Has knowledge and experience in one or more of the areas of homelessness, mental health, substance use, young people with complex needs and/or disability.

- Excels in interpersonal communication, problem-solving, and client-centred care.
- Identify and access multidisciplinary and specialist supports, including collaborative care planning with young people, carers and services.
- Is passionate about working collaboratively with clients to achieve positive outcomes.
Benefits of working with us include:
- Work with a supportive team dedicated to empowering young lives.
