Are you experienced in providing holistic trauma informed care?

Want to make a positive impact in reducing homelessness?

We’d love to hear from you!

The Reintegration Housing Support Program (RHSP) supports people leaving prison who are at risk of homelessness. The primary aim of RHSP is to assist people exiting custody to secure stable, long-term housing. The program also provides wrap-around psychosocial case management to improve clients’ wellbeing and reduce their risk of both homelessness and recidivism. CRC Transition Workers are co-located in Homes NSW offices to provide transitional support both pre- and post-release.

CRC works with some of the state’s most stigmatised and marginalised people. In this role you may be working with some confronting issues as statistically people on release are at a higher risk of overdose or suicide, greater risk of death due to interpersonal violence and greater exposure to traumatic events. While there are many levels of support for staff, this work requires someone with high levels of resilience in the face of adversity.

Your usual work hours will be 9-5pm Monday to Friday, with occasional out-of-hours work, as required.

Why work for us?

• CRC is recognised by Diversity Council Australia as an Inclusive Employer 2025-2026
• Support programs that aim to break entrenched cycles of disadvantage, homelessness and imprisonment
• Be part of a community-based agency that has been delivering effective services in our field for over 70 years
• Join a dedicated, energetic team with a culture of trust, integrity and respect
• Be part of a flexible and supportive workplace including benefits such as wellbeing leave
• Access the support of cultural supervision for First Nations staff

To join us, you’ll need:

• Experience and skills in the provision of trauma-informed case management
• A current NSW Driver Licence
• A current NSW Working with Children Check and Criminal Record Check (please note, a criminal record is not a barrier to being considered for a role with CRC)
• Demonstrated cultural competency and awareness of the social, historical and systemic factors impacting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and CALD communities.
• The unrestricted right to work in Australia

Why we're requesting police checks for this role

We request these checks as they are a requirement of the funding contract covering this position. Additionally, anyone entering a correctional centre must undertake a criminal records check to gain authority to enter. Please note, however, that having a criminal record is not a barrier to being considered for a role with CRC.
