• East Perth

You must be of Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander descent to be considered for this position as per section 50D of the Equal Employment Opportunity Act 1984. 

ABOUT US:

Yorgum was established in 1991 by a group of Aboriginal women, some of whom worked in women’s refuges, who were  concerned about the lack of appropriate counselling support for Aboriginal people experiencing spiritual, emotional and psychological pain. They founded a service with a ‘healing’ approach rather than an ongoing, crisis-driven ‘patch-up’ approach.

Yorgum offers all Aboriginal people and their families autonomous, community based healing services that are culturally secure, trauma-informed and work within an Aboriginal Family Worldview.

The Role:

This position provides a range of administration and office support services to the Link-Up team to effectively deliver culturally appropriate services to the Stolen Generation(s).

4. Demonstrated ability to work independently and as a team member.
5. Demonstrated, verbal, written and interpersonal skills.
6. Demonstrated experience with Microsoft Office and database applications.
7. Demonstrated understanding of the Aboriginal Terms of Reference and cultural competency.
