Job description

Are you passionate and committed to making a difference in the lives of others?

  • Enormous job satisfaction
  • Friendly, supportive team environment
  • Flexible working hours

The core mission of Anglicare (NSW South, West & ACT) is to break the cycle of intergenerational poverty for children, young people and families. We mainly focus on serving vulnerable communities in the ACT and regional, rural NSW.

ANGLICARE Riverina's Community Services provides a range of services for children, young people and their families throughout the Riverina, Murrumbidgee, and Western NSW. This portfolio continues to grow, and to ensure we provide exceptional support to the people we service, we are now seeking an experienced Youth Counsellor to join our Youth Services team within the Reconnecting Home program (Homelessness Youth Assistance Program).

Reporting to the Youth Services Coordinator, this pivotal role will contribute to developing and providing high-quality, early intervention intake responses and ongoing support to young people aged 12 to 15 years who are homeless or at risk and their families. The counselling service will take a strengths-based approach, using holistic assessments, case planning, advocacy and support methods to achieve various goals.

What's needed

The successful applicant must be a qualified Counsellor (minimum requirement - Diploma of Counselling) and have a minimum of two years' experience, ideally delivering services to young people or working in the Homelessness sector. It is imperative that you also have experience and knowledge in delivering culturally sensitive programs and trauma-informed practices, especially in working with Aboriginal children and families. You will also require a C-class driver's licence.

We also offer:

  • Generous salary packaging under Anglicare's PBI status
  • Employee Assistance Program
  • Opportunities for growth through mentoring, training and professional development.
  • Other benefits, including additional personal leave and paid parental leave.

If you are a passionate and caring person prepared to embrace our values of Compassion, Integrity, Dignity and Inclusion in your day-to-day work life, with a great work ethic and a real desire to assist people in your community, then we want to hear from you.

Applicants must obtain a Working With Children clearance through the Office of the Children's Guardian (NSW) and undergo a National Criminal History Check before an offer of employment.
