Pre and Post Worker - Brisbane South

Lives Lived Well delivers a range of alcohol and other drug, mental health, and wellbeing services across Queensland, New South Wales, and South Australia, supporting thousands of people each year to live healthier and more fulfilling lives.

We are currently seeking an experienced Pre and Post Worker to join our South Brisbane Community Services team.

Your Opportunity

As a Pre and Post Worker, you will provide individual support, case management, assessment, and care coordination to clients before and after treatment, helping them engage with services, overcome barriers, and build sustainable recovery pathways within their communities.

This role offers the opportunity to work with a diverse client group while collaborating with a multidisciplinary team committed to achieving positive outcomes.

The salary for this role is $105,000 - $110,000 pro rata plus Superannuation, depending on qualifications and experience. You'll also have access to Salary Packaging benefits to increase your take-home pay and a wide range of employee discounts through Perkbox.

We're committed to building a workforce that reflects the communities we support. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and people from diverse backgrounds are encouraged to apply.

What We're Looking For

Joining Lives Lived Well as a Pre and Post Worker gives you the opportunity to make a meaningful difference in the lives of people affected by alcohol and other drug use while developing your skills in a supportive and values-driven organisation.

While experience in the AOD sector is highly regarded, we welcome applicants with experience in community services, mental health, social services, or other human service settings.

You will bring:

• Experience supporting clients through assessment, screening, care planning, and service coordination.
• Knowledge of evidence-based practice principles and how to apply them in a client-centred environment.
• Demonstrated skills in motivational interviewing and behaviour change approaches.
• Strong interpersonal skills, including active listening, empathy, emotional intelligence, and non-judgmental communication.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to engage effectively with diverse stakeholders.
• Resilience, adaptability, and the ability to support people experiencing complex challenges.
• Strong time management and organisational skills, with the ability to work autonomously and manage competing priorities.
• Solid computer skills and a commitment to maintaining accurate and timely client records.

Tertiary qualifications in social work, psychology, behavioural science, counselling, community services, or a related field are highly regarded.

Most importantly, you'll demonstrate a genuine alignment with the Lives Lived Well values:

• We are humble, human, and full of hope
• We show up and share
• We ask: Why not? And what's next?
• We leave a positive wake

The successful applicant will be required to obtain a National Police Check and hold a current Australian Driver Licence.

Benefits of Working With Us

You'll join a curious team that embraces innovation, values collaboration, and supports each other through change. We look to the evidence, explore new ideas, and continuously seek better ways of supporting our clients and communities.

Some of our benefits include:

• Regular one-to-one supervision, team meetings, and skip-level manager check-ins
• A diverse and inclusive workplace culture
• Access to WellMob resources supporting social, emotional, and cultural wellbeing for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples
