- Give multicultural families meaningful opportunities to contribute to the planning and design of community programs.

- Work collaboratively with government agencies, community organisations and local service providers to improve outcomes for young children and their families

1. Considerable experience in community services program delivery, including planning, organising and evaluating experiences for families and young children.

2. Sound experience working in the community/social services sector and/or advocating for family support services across the social services sector.

4. Sound knowledge of the community services sector that enables the ability to provide cultural advice and contribute to the development of programs and services.

5. Well-developed interpersonal, communication and engagement skills, with the ability to build effective relationships and work collaboratively with community service stakeholders.

6. The ability to obtain Working With Children’s, Police Clearance and holding of a current driver’s licence.

7. A relevant tertiary qualification will be highly regarded.
