Let's talk about us

Nexus Primary Health supports people to fully participate within their community through the provision of appropriate wide-ranging support services throughout their life span. With a 40 year history, we are the "go to" organisation for primary health information and person-centred services in the outer and rural north of Melbourne.

We are currently recruiting for an Access & Support Officer with case management and community development experience.

Let's talk about the role

Working as part of a motivated team, the Access & Support Officer will implement the Access and Support program across the Mitchell and Murrindindi Local Government Areas. The program will target people with identified needs and support them in overcoming barriers to accessing health services and the broader community. No two days will be the same.

Here is an opportunity to channel your positive approach and strength to members of the community who are working through some of life's challenges. Each day you spend with us will demonstrate your commitment to the empowerment and growth in confidence of our clients.

And best of all, you'll be making a difference, every single day, to clients and their families who need a helping hand.

Let's talk about you

You will ideally have experience in a health or community services setting where you identified, assessed, advocated and empowered clients based on their expressed goals, wishes and needs. You will also have a broad understanding of diversity needs and challenges that may prevent clients from accessing services. You are used to working in a fast paced and changing environment and get satisfaction in supporting vulnerable clients. You'll draw upon your tertiary qualifications in social work, health promotion, social science, public health or a related field to ensure our clients are receiving the high quality of care they deserve.

The benefits on offer

We provide a supportive, friendly workplace with staff who are committed and passionate about the Nexus Values. We offer professional development opportunities, generous salary packaging, a 19-day 4-week work cycle and competitive salaries.
