It is a genuine requirement that this position is filled by a woman as permitted in sections 25, 104 and 105 of the Anti-Discrimination Act, 1991.
Bella’s Sanctuary is a safe place for women and their children to heal and rebuild after violence, providing independent, medium-term accommodation for up to five families at a time. It aims to assist women to transition into independent housing (either private rentals or public housing), while supporting the women who live there to be close to family, schools and work on the Gold Coast.
By delivering strengths-based case management focusing on minimal intervention, you will provide comprehensive assistance for clients with low support needs. This includes but is not limited to, offering information and referrals to help clients access local services such as ongoing financial planning, emotional support, and referrals for legal assistance. You will also provide additional support by offering information and referrals for potential exit pathways, which can involve supporting the search for available private rentals and completing relevant paperwork and applications when necessary.
As a Bella's Sanctuary Worker, you will facilitate a smooth transition for clients exiting our program by coordinating their move into a new property which may involve connecting the client with local services such as RizeUp or Baby Give Back to ensure comprehensive assistance is provided for the client throughout this journey.
Collaboration with referring agencies is crucial in identifying potential tenants who are low-risk and have minimal support needs when vacancies become available. We evaluate, accept and assist suitable referrals with the tenancy sign-up process. Furthermore, you will coordinate with our property manager to guarantee clients receive a quality high-standard service, ensure timely completion of maintenance tasks and sign-up processes, and uphold proper adherence to the maintenance of our tenancy agreements.
In addition to these responsibilities, you hold accountability for cleaning communal areas and maintaining up-to-date records through our client file system. You will also collaborate with our property team within DVConnect to ensure the sharing of information related to property maintenance and follow-up tasks are addressed appropriately.
Please be advised that only shortlisted applicants will be contacted, and interviews will be conducted as applications come through. For more information about the position, please email [email protected], using the subject line: Bella's Sanctuary Worker enquiry via EthicalJobs.
