Full Job Description

Dynamic security role at the re-opening Malmsbury Youth Justice Precinct.
Perfect job for problem solvers with great verbal communication skills.
Full training provided, including a fully-funded Certificate IV in Youth Justice.
Earn up to $99,645 per year, on a base of $62,104 (including standard penalty rates).
Relocation allowance available for eligible candidates.

Malmsbury Youth Justice Precinct has reopened and will house a small group of young men in custody (young people) aged 17 and over.

Night youth justice workers are the frontline staff who will supervise and support young people overnight at Malmsbury.

About the role

This is not a security job with long stretches of downtime. You will speak directly to young people throughout the night, typically through their intercom. When they feel vulnerable, they may reach out. Some conversations will be raw and personal. You will listen with care and compassion while still keeping firm boundaries.

You will also:

conduct regular wellbeing checks of young people
redirect anti-social and challenging behaviour
monitor CCTV, complete compliance reporting and respond to any alarms
respond to incidents as they occur
facilitate support from other services, including health and mental health providers, educators and disability organisations.

We're currently offering up to $10,000 as a relocation allowance to help cover costs for eligible candidates who are interested in moving to within an hour's drive of the facility.

For more information on the skills and experience we look for in our new team members, please read the job description attached.

About you

Being a youth justice worker on the night shift isn't for everyone. But our high-performing staff take pride in the work and appreciate the freedom it gives them in the rest of their lives.

This could be a great role for you if you are:

mature and steady under pressure
a great listener
able to build rapport and negotiate effectively with young people
looking for a night role that frees up some daytime hours to enjoy other things you're passionate about.

Eligibility

To be considered for a youth justice worker role you must be either:

an Australian citizen - a birth certificate, citizenship certificate or current passport is required as proof of eligibility
a permanent resident of Australia
a New Zealand citizen who has entered Australia on a valid passport, or eligible to work in Australia for a period of more than six months.

You will also need to pass a health and fitness assessment. Learn how your current fitness levels match up and the best ways to prepare.

Prior to starting work, all successful candidates must independently obtain:

current First Aid Certification (HLTAID011)
current CPR Certification
a valid Working with Children Check (Employee).

Please note, all certificates must be valid for at least three months from employment start date.

Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people are strongly encouraged to apply and contact [email protected] if they would like cultural support and guidance through the application process.

A driver licence is desirable but not mandatory.

CHILD SAFE STATEMENT OF COMMITMENT:

The Department of Justice and Community Safety is committed to the safety and wellbeing of children and young people. We seek to prevent harm of any kind impacting children and young people and have zero tolerance for racism, child abuse and inequality. Children and young people's rights, relationships, identity, and culture must be recognised and respected, their voices heard, and their concerns acted upon. We aim to foster a culturally safe, child safe and child friendly environment for all children and young people we have contact with, deliver services to, or are impacted by our work.
