Case Worker Family Preservation Tamworth Family Support Service

JOB DESCRIPTION

Imagine working for a truly regional organisation with 90+ employees who share a vision: Thriving Communities, Endless Possibilities. We enjoy what we do at TFSS. We bring projects to life in the towns and communities in which we work, and we’re driven by a set of values and common principles.

Tamworth Family Support Service (TFSS) is looking for a Case Worker to be part of the Family Preservation team in Tamworth. The team works with families throughout Tamworth and Gunnedah Local Government Areas (LGA), as such travel throughout this area is an essential part of the role.

The successful applicant will be able to work independently, to enable children and young people to remain safely living at home wherever possible and prevent unnecessary out of home care (OOHC) placement by:

  • improving child and family functioning; and
  • enabling families to access appropriate social and practical support.

 All staff are valued and respected and are presented with genuine opportunities to develop to their full potential. TFSS recognises the importance of a healthy work/life balance, and you will enjoy some flexibility in your working hours if required. 

Remuneration for this role will be paid at an hourly rate of between $41.52 and $49.65 dependent on relevant skills and experience. In addition, salary packaging benefits are available for TFSS staff, where you can package up to $15,900 tax- free per annum.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are encouraged to apply.

Applicants must submit a resume and cover letter outlining their suitability for the role and how they meet each of the Competencies and Outcomes as listed in the position description (which is available on our website) to be considered for an interview.
