ABOUT US
The Salvation Army is a Christian movement and one of Australia's largest and most-loved charities. We believe in doing good that transforms lives and futures for the better. It is this belief which drives us to find new ways and places where we can make a difference. From times of personal crisis to moments of national grief, we are always here — providing support, safety, community, and opportunity.
At Employment Plus, we've been transforming lives and supporting communities since 1998 as a proud member of The Salvation Army. Our purpose is simple: to help people overcome barriers, build confidence, and achieve sustainable employment outcomes.
The Steps of Freedom (SOFI) program supports people with a history of offending to successfully reintegrate into the community through employment, training and tailored support. We recognise that meaningful employment can play a critical role in reducing reoffending and creating positive long-term change.
The Opportunity
In this specialist role, you'll support people with a history of offending to overcome barriers, secure employment and successfully reintegrate into the community. Through case management, employment planning and employer engagement, you'll help participants achieve meaningful and sustainable outcomes.
Due to the specialist nature of the program and participant cohort, direct experience supporting justice-involved individuals is an essential requirement for this role.
What You'll Be Doing
This is a rewarding and varied role where you'll support people with a history of offending, including those presenting with complex or high-risk needs, to overcome barriers, build confidence and secure sustainable employment.
You'll work in a small specialist team, collaborating with participants, employers, stakeholders and support services to create positive pathways into work and support successful reintegration into the community.
A typical day might include:
