Job description

Management and Training Corporation – Broadmeadows VIC

MTC is a global leader in the corrections, detention, training and education sectors operating Job Corps centres, correctional facilities, detention centres, detention medical departments and workforce development sites globally.

Our Vision is to be a leader in social impact by transforming lives and strengthening communities. We are proud of the incredible work our employees do providing support, giving hope, and providing opportunities for a better life.

About The Role

We’re looking for a creative and motivated casual Programs & Activities Officer to join our team at the Melbourne Immigration Detention Centre. This is a casual position, and the number of shifts available each week will vary depending on operational needs.

If you have a background in education, cooking, fitness, or hairdressing, this is your chance to share your skills in a meaningful way - supporting detainees to build confidence, learn, and grow.

You’ll deliver practical, skills-based sessions that support detainee wellbeing and engagement. From life skills to cooking programs, you’ll help design and facilitate activities that make a real difference.

Key Responsibilities

  • Delivering and supporting group programs and life skills activities

  • Facilitating education, training, or practical workshops in education, cooking, or fitness

  • Contributing to inclusive, culturally sensitive program design

  • Providing feedback and supporting program reviews and improvements

  • Responding to emergency situations professionally and safely

  • Maintaining program spaces, equipment and documentation

  • Supporting detainees to build capacity and self-management

Key Requirements

You’re approachable, energetic, and passionate about sharing your skills to help others. You enjoy working with people from diverse backgrounds and have a calm, professional manner in dynamic environments.

  • Diploma qualification in Community Services (mandatory)

  • Excellent communication, judgment, and ethical integrity

  • Ability to gain and retain all relevant clearances (i.e. AFP, WWCC, First Aid & CPR)

Proudly promoting a culture of Safety, Respect and Dignity, Secure Journeys instils the BIONIC (Believe It Or Not I Care) philosophy in all our centres. BIONIC means promoting a caring culture for change based upon safety, respect and dignity.

We celebrate diversity in our workplace and therefore welcome applications from all people who believe they have the skills and abilities to truly make a difference for our business.
