About Us:

Parkville Youth Mental Health and Wellbeing Service (PYMHWS) is Victoria’s first standalone public mental health service designed specifically for young people aged 12 to 25. Operational from July 2025, PYMHWS is leading a bold transformation in how youth mental health is accessed, experienced, and governed across Melbourne’s north and west.

We deliver specialist, community,



and inpatient services to young people experiencing, or at risk of mental ill-health. Our multidisciplinary teams are based at Parkville, Footscray, Spotswood, Sunshine, Wyndham, Cherry Creek and Malmsbury, working closely with families, carers, supporters and kin to provide developmentally appropriate, evidence-based, trauma-informed, inclusive care, grounded in lived experience.

At PYMHWS, every decision - from the front desk to the boardroom - centres on what young people need to live the lives they want to lead. We partner with Orygen, bringing their world-leading research and knowledge translation expertise into care delivery.

Together, we are building an integrated service model that connects Orygen[1]operated headspace centres with PYMHWS clinical services, creating a unified care experience. As we grow, we’re building a service with - and for - young people. One that reflects the diversity of our communities, embraces continuous learning and the generation of new knowledge, and strengthens the mental health system around it

The Opportunity:

Be part of something new.

As Victoria's Youth Justice system expands into the reopened Malmsbury Youth Justice Precinct, the Forensic Youth Mental Health Service (FYMHS) is building a recent multidisciplinary team to deliver specialist mental health care to young people in custody.
