Behaviour Change Facilitator

Are you an experienced Behaviour Change Facilitator looking for a challenging and rewarding role? If you’ve got what it takes to guide men to critically reflect on their behaviour, attitudes and beliefs, this could be the role for you.

You’ll be part of a collaborative, well-respected team standing tall to end domestic violence in Logan.

About the job

Role location: Slacks Creek
Role type: Permanent part-time, 8 days per fortnight (32-hour week)
Pay range: $89,042 – $93,073 (pro rata) a year based on experience, with salary sacrificing available.

In this role you will:

  • prioritise women and children’s safety through risk management and group work with men.
  • guide men to critically reflect on their abusive and controlling behaviour, attitudes and beliefs.
  • need to be familiar and work in accordance with legislation and practice principles, standards and guidelines.
  • have a deep understanding of the gendered nature of domestic violence and evidence that you have applied this understanding in your practice.
  • be available for one evening each week, working from 12 noon to 8.30pm on that day.
  • benefit from working in an innovative team, with a strong practice framework that increases safety for women and children and holds men accountable for violent and abusive behaviours.

About you

Aside from meeting the key capabilities outlined in the related role description, you’ll be a great fit if:

  • bring an understanding of gendered violence and a feminist practice framework.
  • have a collaborative team approach to enhancing the safety of primarily women and children, and a person-centred approach to men who have used violence and have complex histories and needs to increase their motivation to change.
  • are interested in trying new, innovative approaches to meet the demands of the community.
