Job description

So many lives. So many ways. One you.

50,000 lives and counting.

That’s how many South Australians our people support each year.

As one of the state’s leading not-for-profits, we’re making a meaningful impact at scale. From foster care to aged care and everything in between, our services are as diverse as the people and communities we serve - and we’re growing our reach for the future.

It takes a special kind of person to work in this sector. Someone with real compassion and care. Could that person be you?

Join us as a Support Facilitator, and be part of something bigger.

What you’ll do

As a Support Facilitator, you will work alongside young people with lived care experience as they transition to independent living. Through strengths-based, trauma-informed case management and support coordination, you’ll empower young people to build confidence, develop practical life skills and take meaningful steps towards their future goals.

You’ll support young people to navigate housing, finances, education, employment, relationships and community connections, while helping them access the right services, supports and resources. By building trusting relationships and keeping young people’s voices at the centre of every decision, you’ll help them strengthen their independence, wellbeing and sense of belonging.

Working collaboratively with young people, their natural supports and other service providers, you’ll help create opportunities for lasting positive change. You’ll also contribute to group activities, advocate for young people’s needs and help them access grants and allowances that support their transition to independent living.

This is an opportunity to make a meaningful difference in the lives of young people, supporting them to shape their own futures within a values-driven organisation committed to inclusion, reconciliation and community wellbeing.

This position is full-time on a fixed-term contract until 19th October 2027, based at Kurralta Park.

You’ll be trusted to make a valuable impact by:

• Delivering trauma-informed, strengths-based case management and support coordination, including screening, risk assessment, goal setting and client-led planning.
• Supporting young people to develop independent living skills, navigate housing and tenancy options, build financial literacy and access education, training and employment opportunities.
• Coordinating referrals, advocating for young people and connecting them with services, natural supports and community networks that strengthen their wellbeing and independence.
• Facilitating collaborative, client-led decision-making and supporting young people to access relevant grants, allowances and practical resources as they transition from care.
• Building safe, culturally responsive relationships and working collaboratively with families and service providers to ensure young people’s needs, cultural identities and goals remain central to their support.

What you’ll bring

To thrive in this role, you will have:

• Bachelor’s Degree (AQF Level 7) in Social Work or demonstrated knowledge and competencies appropriate to Social Work.
• Experience working with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people, families, and communities effectively, using culturally responsive approaches and processes.
• Experience in delivering trauma-informed practice.

We would also love you to have:

• Experience supporting young people transitioning from out-of-home care.

Why AnglicareSA?

Your contribution here matters. We want you to see your impact every day, and we want you to feel valued for it.

Here’s what you can expect in your career at AnglicareSA:

• So many lives, right here in SA: Our ripple effect starts with you. Whatever your role, you’ll help find a way forward for the communities you live in and care about. That’s something to be proud of.
• So many ways, for our clients and you: We support those in need in so many ways. For you, that means real opportunity to gain new knowledge and experiences and to explore the many pathways a career in our sector can take.
