Social Worker - Alice Springs

Veritable
  • Exciting opportunity to provide social work services for NDIS participants
  • Regular supervision and reflective practice to provide quality services
  • Be part of a dynamic company, committed to social justice and human rights

This position is an exciting opportunity to be part of an establishing social work company that has a strong reputation in Central Australia for quality services. Veritable is seeking an experienced social worker who can join the team and expand the supports provided to people with disabilities in Central Australia. The role includes both specialist coordination of supports and social work interventions to improve the quality of life of people with disabilities.

Veritable is seeking a social worker who is committed to excellence, comfortable working independently, and who is reflective, positive and adaptable. You can help co-create a dynamic social work business in Central Australia, offering a range of individualised services for people with disabilities. 

Initially the majority of work will be specialist coordination of supports for participants on the NDIS who have complex needs. Veritable is, however, increasingly receiving referrals for a broad range of social work interventions. These range from counselling and psycho-social assessments, to making plans and recommendations to better meet participant's individual needs.

Another important aspect of Veritable's services is positive behaviour support. This work fits in well within a social work practice framework, by working to improve people's quality of life, reducing and ceasing the use of restrictive practices, and taking a human rights-based approach to interventions and planning. This is a growth area for Veritable, and if you are interested in building your skills in this area over time, we are interested to hear from you.

As part of a small business, you will be a key partner in building the service offerings for participants referred to Veritable. This position provides opportunities for leadership and career development as the business grows. 

Mandatory requirements for employment apply to this position.

Call Sophie Staughton on 0436 358 679 to discuss the position in more detail. More detail is provided in the attached position description.
