Your opportunity
Every day, lives are impacted by the ripple effects of family and domestic violence, but with the right support, change is possible. At Mission Australia, we walk alongside individuals and families to create safer homes, stronger relationships, and more hopeful futures. As a Program Facilitator within our Men's Behaviour Change Program (MBCP), you will play a vital role in guiding participants to reflect on their behaviours, take responsibility, and build respectful, non‑violent ways of relating. This evidence‑informed group program is designed to improve safety and wellbeing for women, children, and families by supporting men to challenge harmful patterns and develop healthier relationships, contributing to stronger, more connected communities.
While experience in family and domestic violence or men's behaviour change programs will be highly regarded, we also encourage applications from candidates who may have less direct experience but have relevant qualifications, a strong interest in behaviour change work, and a genuine commitment to supporting safer families and communities.
If you are early in your career and keen to develop your skills in men's behaviour change, family and domestic violence practice, group facilitation, and risk assessment, we offer a supportive team setting with access to supervision, reflective practice, professional development, and mentoring from experienced practitioners.
Candidates with experience in related fields such as community services, counselling, mental health, alcohol and other drugs, youth work, child and family services, corrections, or case management are encouraged to apply.

Your key responsibilities will be to:





- Facilitate Men's Behaviour Change Program group sessions in line with program standards and best practice
- Conduct intake, assessment and risk screening for participants entering the program
- Support participants to reflect on their behaviour, take accountability and develop non‑violent relationship skills
- Contribute to safety planning and risk management in collaboration with internal and external stakeholders
- Provide individual support sessions as required to reinforce learning and address participant needs
- Maintain accurate, timely case notes, records and reporting in line with organisational requirements
- Work collaboratively with partner services to support integrated responses to family and domestic violence
- Participate in clinical supervision, reflective practice and ongoing professional development
- Contribute to program evaluation, continuous improvement and quality assurance activities
- Promote a culturally safe, inclusive and respectful environment for all participants

- Demonstrated experience working within family and domestic violence or behaviour change programs or related human services settings highly regarded
