Posted 16 days ago
Bring your skills and passion working with complex young people to start a new career in Victoria and enjoy a relocation allowance of up to $10,000!
We are currently recruiting full-time youth justice workers to start at Cherry Creek Youth Justice Precinct, a secure facility near Werribee housing young people on remand or sentenced to a period of imprisonment.
This is not a dedicated case management or youth work role. You will follow and promote important security procedures every day and be a positive role model for complex young people. You will also set boundaries and reinforce expected behaviours.
The job can be physically and mentally draining, but in return for your life experience and passion, we offer:
9 weeks of fully paid training
the chance to increase your salary with generous penalty rates
personalised professional development plans, and the chance to unlock countless career opportunities if you thrive in your role
Extensive in-house clinical and peer support available through our staff-wellbeing programs
5 weeks of paid annual leave per year.
We also look for:
Dedication and resilience – you can maintain positivity and commitment even after setbacks.
Life experience – you can adapt and manage challenging situations
Passion and empathy – you're willing to work with young people from complex backgrounds to ensure their basic needs are met.
Interpersonal skills – you can find common ground with young people and diffuse conflict.
Problem solving – you can make smart decisions quickly.
Apply now for roles at our new state-of-the-art Cherry Creek facility!
