Care Solutions is currently setting up a new Supervised Contact service in the Christchurch area. We are a community based, child focused agency. Visits are for two hours and venues may vary. This is an opportunity to be part of an exciting new team.
Coordinator Role
We require someone who is self-motivated, administratively organised, able to assess risk, manage a small team and passionate about children’s rights. If you have these skills you may be the person we need to coordinate this service in Canterbury.
Experience in family harm, drug and alcohol and mental health will be essential. Strong administrative skills will be needed to coordinate contacts, summarise and write Court reports and communicate skills to interact with all parties including, families, lawyers, social workers and the Court.
This is an opportunity to work from home with hours growing quickly from part time to full time.
Training and ongoing support will be given.
Contact supervisors (6)
We are looking for a diverse group of supervisors both male and female. The role provides for a non-day to day (visiting) parent to have supervised visits with their children, ensuring that children are safe, while supporting and providing an opportunity to rebuild the parent/child relationship.
The role includes supervising the contact (usually two hours), keeping the child/children safe, following any safety plan that may be in place, and writing an observational report after the contact. Three hours is paid to allow time for separate handovers between the parents, the contact itself, and writing the report. Mileage is paid from home to the contact. Note that most contacts take place during the weekend or after school hours.
Skills required:
Great interpersonal skills, strong commitment to children and their families, the ability to work with a diverse range of families. Access to a computer and the ability to write an observational report.
If you are non-judgmental and interested in ensuring the best interests of the children in your community we would like to hear from you. The positions are casual and usually three hours at a time and the clients’ and supervisor’s availability may vary. Often you may be required to do two or three of these visits each week.
Training and ongoing support will be given. A Police vetting will be required and you will need a full drivers licence.
