Based across two sites, Ascot Vale and Maribyrnong, the Manager Secure Welfare unit has a critical role in the development of business intelligence and identification of emerging trends that enable the delivery of high quality, clinically safe services and evidence‑based decision making within the organisation. The Manager unit holds a formal leadership role and therefore is responsible for inspiring a shared vision, modelling a values‑based approach, and creating a culture in which new ways of working are encouraged and enabled.

What our young people request from our workers:

Young people across YSAShave spoken out and given feedback about the qualities that best describe a good YSAS worker:

Young people ... “A good worker takes the time to understand your interests and doesn’t treat everyone the same.”“Young people believe that a good YSAS worker is empathetic and good at actively listening in a non‑judgmental way, is relatable, down‑to‑earth and able to build trust and rapport in a consistent manner”. “It takes time to trust someone, but it’s worth it when you know they’ve got your back”. Young people have also raised that genuine human connection is an important quality, “being authentically human”, while having a holistic, flexible, and adaptable approach that considers the entire context of a young person’s life and their intersectionalities. “It’s about making sure workers don’t just tick boxes but genuinely want to see us thrive”

Regardless of where they are based or what position a worker has, everything we do at YSAS is about young people and their families.
