About the role
Metro Assist’s Settlement services are aimed at helping migrants and refugees settle successfully into Australian life. Employment programs include the Dress for Work social enterprise, Refugee Employment Support, and the ParentsNext program. These services aim to enhance vulnerable jobseekers’ employability skill and employment outcomes through skills development, professional attire fitting (for men), mentoring, and access to training, education and job opportunities. Southern Sydney Tenants Advice and Advocacy Service (SSTAAS) promotes social justice through the provision of free tenancy advice, information, advocacy, tribunal representation and education to disadvantaged renters.
The role requires navigating the complex landscape of social service delivery and funding environments, ensuring that programs meet the community’s evolving needs and are delivered in a holistic and person-centred manner. Key responsibilities include leading and supporting program team leaders to build a cohesive team, ensuring service delivery performance is in line with contractual requirements and organisational policies, driving improvements in service practices, establishing and maintaining strategic partnerships, and engaging in sector development and policy advocacy initiatives within the scope of the programs. Additionally, the role focuses on stakeholder engagement and fostering the growth of the programs within the area of responsibility.
