Public Guardian Contract where you get to make a difference
At ACM, we're proud to partner with organisations that genuinely make a difference in people's lives. Right now, we're looking for a Guardian to join a dedicated team delivering Guardianship services across New South Wales on a contract role.
This is more than a role - it's a chance to use your experience in Case Management or Social Work to really make a difference. You'll advocate for the rights and wellbeing of people with disabilities, influence systems for better outcomes, and provide guidance and support in a meaningful and rewarding field.
About the Role
As a Guardian, you'll be supporting some of the most vulnerable people in our community. You'll manage guardianship matters, make decisions in line with legislation, and mentor staff - all while acting with empathy, integrity, and respect.
You can be based in Wollongong, Gosford, Newcastle, Sydney, or Parramatta, and a hybrid working model may be available depending on your experience.
What You'll Be Doing
- Develop and implement decision-making plans that support the best outcomes for people under guardianship
- Prepare reports, submissions, and recommendations for senior officers, NCAT, and the Public Guardian
- Make decisions using your delegated authority in line with legislation and organisational standards
- Supervise and support Guardians and support staff, approving reports and providing advice
- Work closely with families, carers, medical professionals, and service providers on complex cases
- Conduct visits to understand local services and community supports
- Engage in systemic advocacy to improve guardianship services
What You'll Bring - Experience in Case Management, Social Work, disability services, or a related field
- A solid understanding of the Guardianship Act and principles of supported decision-making
- Strong analytical, reporting, and case management skills
- Excellent interpersonal skills to work collaboratively and compassionately with a variety of stakeholders
- Confidence in guiding others through complex and sensitive situations
Why Join This Team? You'll be part of a supportive, values-driven team that empowers people and drives positive change. Your knowledge and experience will be respected, your input will be valued, and your work will have a real
impact on people's lives.
