About the Role

  • Ability to collaborate with other service providers, stakeholders such as police and courts to achieve outcomes.
  • Demonstrated ability to work in a complex, fast‑paced team, and to demonstrate resilience in managing competing demands.
  • Commitment to self‑care and support of the team. Ability to mentor staff within the team, providing advice and support as needed.
  • Requirements : Valid Police Check, a Working with Children’s Check for a paid employee (or willingness to obtain) and a Victorian Driver Licence. Current COVID‑19 vaccination (Strongly Recommended).
