THE ROLE

Work Locations:
(Dandenong/Box Hill)

The Family Group Conference pilot will focus on supporting vulnerable families to make decisions about the care and safety of their children early in Child Protection involvement, strengthen their engagement with services, and to divert families from further statutory involvement including the need for legal intervention.

The pilot will operate in a number of sites across the state.

The position will support Family Group Conference Convenors and assist with the scheduling and coordination of conferences, record keeping and brokerage expenditure and support the implementation of the pilot.

If required, this position can also assist in transportation where families need assistance to attend the conference.

COVID-19 VACCINATION

The department strongly recommends (but does not mandate) that employees maintain their COVID-19 vaccination status in accordance with current
ATAGI (Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation) advice, given their individual circumstances.

As of June 2023, DFFH does not require evidence of COVID-19 vaccination status.

Applicants are required to submit a CV and Cover Letter (max 2 pages) outlining their suitability to the role in line with the Key Selection Criteria.

Applicants must be an Australian Citizen, Permanent Resident or hold a valid work permit or visa. Work eligibility will be checked as part of the recruitment process.
