In this fulltime, maximum term role through to end of June 2024, with potential for extension, you’ll work within a team to provide case management and safety planning support to women and children who are escaping or experiencing domestic violence, within the refuge accommodation program and outreach role. The role attracts some minimal rostered on-call responsibilities, and report to the Team Leader.

You will make an impact by:

  • Facilitating the provision of safe accommodation to women and children escaping domestic and family violence
  • Conducting thorough risk and needs assessments, within a trauma informed case management framework
  • Working with families to source appropriate, safe and sustainable accommodation free from violence and/or connecting families with services to meet their needs

Does this sound like you?

You’re an experienced domestic and family violence practitioner with high levels of initiative and flexibility alongside cultural sensitivity and knowledge. You’re able to respond calmly and effectively in crisis and complex situations. Importantly, you possess a thorough understanding of the impact of domestic violence on women and children and are able to apply that within a trauma-informed practice framework.

This role requires:

  • Demonstrated experience in case management and knowledge of relevant legislation;
  • Knowledge and understanding of domestic and family violence, including the impact on children;
  • Demonstrated experience working with families from diverse cultural backgrounds;
  • Strong teamwork and communication skills;
  • Current drivers’ licence;
