Full Job Description

Ripementoring is looking for an experienced mentor to deliver our Empowered Tiddas Program across local Illawarra, Shoalhaven and Far South Coast regional high schools. Funded under the Department of Education’s School Engagement Support Program (SESP), this role is offered on a sessional or casual contract basis starting at the commencement of Term 4, 2026.

RipeMentoring Pty Ltd

Nowra, New South Wales 2541, Australia Casual / Contract

Relevant qualification in Youth Work, Community Services, or equivalent professional/lived experience in cultural mentoring. Demonstrated experience supporting and empowering young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women (Tiddas) in educational or community settings. Current Working with Children Check (WWCC) and National Police Check (NPC) required. Commencing Term 4, 2026.

Role Type

On-site Contract Casual Associate

Availability: Minimum 2–3 days per week (Monday to Friday) during school terms.

Description

We are seeking an inspiring, passionate, and culturally grounded Facilitator / Youth Worker who can lift up, engage, and support young women to thrive!

The Empowered Tiddas program is a targeted, culturally responsive initiative designed specifically for young Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women in Years 8–10 who are showing early signs of disengaging from school and their learning. The program focuses on building self-esteem, resilience, cultural connection, and positive return-to-education pathways.

About the Role

The primary function of this role is to deliver engaging, supportive workshops and mentoring sessions to small, optimal cohorts of approximately 10 students within regional school settings.

Program delivery includes:

Identity & Wellbeing: Facilitating personal development, self-worth, and mental health resilience activities.
Cultural Connection: Grounding workshops in community, identity, traditional storytelling, and creative arts.
Leadership & Future Pathways: Nurturing goal setting, communication, work readiness, and positive academic aspirations.
Sisterhood & Peer Support: Cultivating safe spaces for open dialogue, mutual support, and collective goal mapping.

You will balance dynamic group facilitation with individualised care coordination, helping participants build the practical skills and emotional resilience needed to successfully navigate their education.

Key Responsibilities

Deliver Curriculum: Plan and facilitate structured Empowered Tiddas curriculum blocks (including Cultural Identity & Pride, Goal Setting, and Resilience & Wellbeing).
Engage & Motivate: Use strengths-based, trauma-informed approaches to foster a safe, inclusive, and empowering environment.
Collaborate with Schools: Liaison with school coordinators, community elders, and families to ensure respectful and collaborative program execution.
Monitor Progress: Maintain accurate, confidential records of student attendance, engagement levels, and program outcomes.

Essential Requirements

Relevant qualification in Youth Work, Community Services, or demonstrated equivalent professional/lived experience in cultural mentoring and youth leadership.
Proven experience working with young people, particularly young Indigenous women, or youth experiencing barriers to educational engagement.
Strong group facilitation, communication, and interpersonal skills.
A deeply empathetic, strengths-based approach to youth work.
Current Working with Children Check (WWCC) and National Police Check (NPC).
Reliable transport and a valid driver's licence to travel between regional school sites.

Why Work with Us

This is a profound opportunity to directly impact the lives of young women and future leaders in the Illawarra, Shoalhaven and Far South Coast communities. You will be part of a vibrant, purpose-driven team at Ripementoring dedicated to community-led leadership, social impact, and professional mentorship. We offer a supportive, culturally safe workplace where your creativity and passion for mentoring can genuinely shine.
