Due to an internal promotion, MatchWorks is looking for a passionate Mental Health Employment Coach (Individual Placement & Support Consultant) to help people living with mental health challenges achieve their employment goals.
You'll work within a community mental health clinic alongside clinicians and health professionals, delivering employment support that forms part of each participant's recovery journey as part of our Individual Placement & Support (IPS) program.
Unlike traditional employment services roles, you'll manage a smaller, more intensive caseload and provide end-to-end support, from job search through to ongoing employment. Working alongside clinicians and health professionals, you'll build meaningful relationships and see the direct impact your work has on participants' wellbeing, recovery and long-term success.
Whether you're experienced in employment services or looking to build a career in mental health, this is a unique opportunity to combine your people skills, employment expertise and passion for helping others in a role that genuinely changes lives.
We're open to part-time (0.8 FTE), because great people thrive in different ways.
As an Mental Health Employment Coach in our team, you'll:
Experience in employment services, disability employment, employer engagement, mental health or community services.
(You'll also need an NDIS Worker Screening Check and Orientation Module Certificate - but don't worry, we'll help guide you through this.)
