Make a difference in the life of a young person

There are many young people in our community who are unable to live with their families through no fault of their own. Our Permanency Support Program supports young people who have experienced trauma and neglect. Our incredible youth workers work within our residential homes creating a safe and nurturing environment where young people can feel at home while learning important personal and life skills.

A youth worker has an ability to build rapport with the young people and colleagues, empathy and respect for others, and great problem solving skills to assist in manage challenging situations. It’s important they have an understanding of the importance of professional boundaries and above all a commitment to safeguarding young people and creating a safe work environment for all. Does this sound like you?

Candidates must have completed a Certificate III or Certificate IV in Community Services and be willing to enrol and complete a Diploma of Community Services or relevant qualifications of Diploma level or above. Our youth workers operate on a 24/7 roster which include morning, afternoon and night shifts.

You do not need to be Catholic, or of any faith to work for us. But you do need to abide by our mission, vision and values of respect, courage, excellence, compassion and social justice.
