We're looking for a friendly, energetic and organised Community & Partnerships Coordinator to help us grow our connections, strengthen local partnerships and spread the word about what Country Therapy does. This isn't your typical desk job.
One day you might be visiting a school or GP clinic, the next helping create a social media reel, organising a community event or joining our team on the road. You'll work closely with our management team, with plenty of opportunity to bring your own ideas to the role.

- Supporting information sessions, community education programs, networking events and local initiatives
- Coordinating staff activities, team catch-ups, celebrations and occasional retreats
- Maintaining partnership records, tracking referral opportunities and providing a short weekly update to management
About you
- Experience in customer service, hospitality, administration, sales,
marketing or community engagement
- Great communication skills and the confidence to approach new people
- An outgoing, friendly personality and genuine interest in regional communities
- Good organisational skills and the ability to work independently
- An interest in social media, photography, video content or marketing (not essential)
- Confidence using everyday computer systems and maintaining records
- A current driver's licence and willingness to travel across western Victoria
- A National Police Check, Working with Children Check and NDIS Worker Screening Check, or willingness to obtain them
- Experience in healthcare, disability services, aged care or education would be helpful, but isn't essential
