Why this role matters
Darwin and Palmerston are home to young people with extraordinary resilience and infinite potential.

Use creative and activity-based outreach methods to engage young people and raise awareness of youth issues
Maintain accurate case notes, records and reporting in line with TSA requirements

Contribute to continuous improvement, service development and professional learning
What you will bring
