A challenging and genuinely rewarding opportunity has emerged within ACT Corrective Services (ACTCS) for highly motivated, values-driven professionals to join Offender Reintegration as a Reintegration Case Manager (ASO6).

The Reintegration Case Manager is responsible for delivering case management to pre and post release detainees in their transition from prison to the community. You will assist detainees exiting the Alexander Maconochie Centre (AMC) with consideration given to the ACTCS Community Reintegration Pillars: Health, Accommodation, Basic Needs, Family & Community Connectedness, Financial Wellbeing, and Leisure/Recreation.
