Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand New Zealand Government Full time

About the Role

As a Residential Youth Worker at Oranga Tamariki, you will play a vital role in providing care and support to young people. Your primary responsibility will be to act as a positive influence and mentor, helping them develop fundamental life skills.

You will be based at our Kaahui Whetuu residence in South Auckland, where you will work closely with experienced staff to create a supportive environment for the young people in your care. Your day-to-day tasks may include coaching rangatahi through structured activities, participating in sports and cultural programs, and assisting with redirecting behavior.

To succeed in this role, you will need to possess excellent communication skills, empathy, and the ability to make tough decisions. A tertiary education within psychology, social sciences, or teaching would be an advantage, but is not required. If you are passionate about making a positive impact on the lives of tamariki and rangatahi, we encourage you to apply.
