Job type: Part time
Organisation: Department of Families, Fairness and Housing
Occupation: Community Services
Reference: VG/DFFH/COPL/740003
The Department of Families, Fairness and Housing (DFFH) works hard to create equal opportunities for all Victorians to live a safe, respected and valued life.
Our areas of focus are child protection, housing, disability, the prevention of family violence, multicultural affairs, LGBTIQA+ equality, veterans, women and youth.
The work we do benefits thousands of Victorians, particularly those who are disadvantaged and vulnerable.
We work in a variety of community-based settings, including people's homes, residential facilities and secure settings across metropolitan, rural and regional Victoria.
We are committed to developing and supporting a workforce that is well equipped and highly motivated.
All jobs can be worked flexibly, and we encourage applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and people from diverse backgrounds and abilities.
THE ROLE The aim of the Principal Practitioner is to strengthen the skills and knowledge of child protection practitioners and build a child-focused family-centred practice culture that integrates evidence from research and critical reflection.
The Principal Practitioner will undertake specialist assessments and interventions, case reviews, appeals and maintain case records, visit children, their parents, families and carers, and other professionals involved with clients of Child Protection.
The Principal Practitioner will provide high-level expertise and offer secondary consultation and live supervision; facilitate staff mentoring and practice development; and provide leadership in the implementation of continuous improvement strategies based on clinical best practice.
The transportation of children is a requirement of this role; as such, a valid driver's licence and willingness to travel, including in country regions, is essential.
There may be the requirement to work overnight and travel in evenings and early mornings.
You will possess an understanding of Aboriginal culture and demonstrate an understanding of the legislative, policy and practice requirements relating to Aboriginal children, families, and communities, including the Aboriginal Child Placement Principle and the programs and initiatives that support its implementation in child protection practice.
ACCOUNTABILITIES INCLUDE Risk assessment and analysis: proactively identifies and analyses patterns associated with risk assessment and articulates this expert analysis to support and extend practitioner skills. Case planning review and case management: effectively makes decisions in the context of review and appeals and analyses case management across the team. Critical inquiry: implements strategies for continuous improvement in using evidence-based frameworks across teams, programs and practice; displays broad thinking, drawing on research and literature to support evidence-informed practice.

As of June 2023, DFFH does not require evidence of COVID-19 vaccination status.
HOW TO APPLY All VPS employees (and ex-VPS employees with extended access to the Jobs and Skills Exchange website) MUST apply via the Jobs and Skills Exchange portal. Applicants are encouraged to apply online.
