We are an independent, non-religious service provider which supports people to live life their way.
    As part of The Benevolent Society’s vision, we are strongly committed to reconciliation with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people of Australia. We remain steadfast in our commitment to promoting the economic, political, and social inclusion of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

  • Must have proven experience in a Quality and/or Safeguarding role with a comprehensive understanding of program and practice challenges, especially in early childhood service delivery.
  • Excellent writing, presentation and communication skills and experience in providing expert advice and quality improvement support.

  • Demonstrated ability to drive change through influence, with the ability to build strong working relationships based on trust and collaboration across all levels of the organisation.
    If you identify as Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander peoples, then we want to hear from you.
