Description:
Bravehearts works holistically to educate, empower and protect children from child sexual abuse. One of the ways we do this is by visiting kids in early learning centres and primary schools with our friend, Ditto, teaching personal safety education with Bravehearts’ Ditto’s Keep Safe Adventure Program.
We are looking for our next enthusiastic live performer and facilitator to deliver our show in the Greater Sydney region (our office is based in Liverpool so you'll need to be able to get to our office and then use our Dittomobile to visit schools and early learning centre's across Sydney). The role is a permanent part-time role, 22.8 hours, Monday - Wednesday.
What you will bring to the role:
- As our newest star, you’ll work as part of an amazing team having an incredible time performing and presenting important education to kids across the Sydney area.
- You’re outgoing, creative, enthusiastic, motivated and organised.
- The thought of getting up and edu-training a room full of kids (and adults!), either with Ditto or as Ditto, fills you with major excitement!
- Talking to people is your jam! You’ll excel at communicating with new and existing clients, kids and educators, parents and carers, schools, kindies and organisations.
- You have a sneaky love of admin and will have no dramas using standard programs like Word, Excel and Outlook plus a few of our fancier programs.
What you will get in return:
- We might be biased but we think working with one of Australia’s leading child protection organisations amongst the best and brightest, kindest and most supportive team of people is a pretty great way to spend your workdays.
- Not only will you get to make a positive impact in the lives of children each day, but you’ll also have access to professional development opportunities, salary packaging, employee assistance program and wellbeing services, and a day off for your birthday
The other things to know:
- We read cover letters so please include one with your resume as it helps us to understand why you've applied and what skills you can bring
- Your role requires you to, at times, present in costume as Ditto, therefore, applicants must not have any pre-existing injuries that may be impacted by wearing and presenting in the suit.
- As a child-safe organisation, Bravehearts has zero tolerance of child abuse.
- Our robust recruitment processes are strictly adhered to. As part of your role, you will be working with children and young people, and it is your obligation to always ensure their safety in line with our duty of care requirements. You will be required to have a NSW Working With Children Check (WWCC) and National Police Certificate before starting work with Bravehearts, and a minimum of two referees available by phone.
- Please apply quickly as we may close the advert early if we find our next Ditto
- If you need us to make any special adjustments so that you can fully participate in our recruitment process then please either outline them in your application or confidentially via recruitment@bravehearts.org.au.
- All of the full details of the role are available in the position description which you can find here - bravehearts.org.au/careers/
- We foster a work environment that is inclusive and diverse so if you are an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander or come from any other diverse or minority group, we'd love to receive your application.
