So many lives. So many ways. One you.

50,000 lives and counting.

That’s how many South Australians our people support each year.

As one of the state’s leading not-for-profits, we’re making a meaningful impact at scale. From foster care to aged care and everything in between, our services are as diverse as the people and communities we serve - and we’re growing our reach for the future.

It takes a special kind of person to work in this sector. Someone with real compassion and care. Could that person be you?

Join us as a Placement Worker, and be part of something bigger.

What you’ll do

As a Placement Worker, you will play a vital role in ensuring children and young people in care are matched with safe, nurturing, and appropriate foster care placements. By carefully assessing referrals and working closely with carers and support teams, you will help create stable environments where children can thrive and feel supported.

This is a full-time, ongoing position based at Hindmarsh with Hybrid working arrangements available.

You’ll be trusted to make a valuable impact by:

Receiving and reviewing placement referrals from the Department for Child Protection and assessing placement suitability.
Matching children and young people with available foster carers, considering household dynamics, safety, and individual needs.
Maintaining accurate records, documentation, and reporting in line with legislative and organisational requirements.
Applying trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and child-centred approaches in all placement decisions.

What you’ll bring

To thrive in this role, you will have:

Tertiary qualifications in Social Work or a related discipline.
Strong assessment and decision-making skills, with high attention to detail.
Sound knowledge of the child protection system and experience working with complex family and care environments.
Strong self-care, resilience, and self-management skills to support work with complex and emotionally demanding material.

So many ways, for our clients and you: We support those in need in so many ways. For you, that means real opportunity to gain new knowledge and experiences and to explore the many pathways a career in our sector can take.
So much compassion, and a place to belong: At AnglicareSA, you’ll never feel alone. You’ll lean on and learn from genuine people driven to do good, and you’ll build relationships that last a lifetime.
