• Full time, ongoing role as a Team Leader
• Leading with purpose and making a meaningful difference
• $53.43 – 55.85 phr (SCHADS Level 5B) + Leave loading + Super + Salary packaging

At Wellways, we celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive workplace where everyone feels valued, respected and empowered to contribute. We warmly welcome applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, people with lived experience of mental health challenges or disability, people from multicultural backgrounds, and people who identify as LGBTIQA+. We recognise that diverse experiences and perspectives strengthen our workforce and the communities we support.

The Housing team delivers the Doorway and Pathways to Home programs in Victoria, funded by the Victorian Government. Service delivery is underpinned by the Housing First Principles for Australia: people have a right to a home without preconditions, and are offered flexible, person-led support for as long as it’s needed, separate from their housing and grounded in choice, recovery, harm reduction and community inclusion. Doorway is delivered in partnership with clinical mental health providers St Vincent’s Hospital, The Alfred, Bayside Health and Latrobe Regional Health.

We’re seeking an experienced and passionate Team Leader to lead our frontline team in delivering high-quality, person-centred housing support.

This is an opportunity to provide visible, hands-on leadership, strengthen practice and build a positive, inclusive and high-performing team culture grounded in Housing First principles.

You’ll oversee day-to-day service delivery, support and develop frontline employees, drive operational performance and ensure our services meet organisational, contractual and legislative requirements. Working closely with the Service & Practice Lead, you’ll turn strategic priorities into meaningful action and ensure participants receive responsive, consistent and high-quality support.

This is a hands-on, on-site leadership role requiring a regular presence across our metropolitan Melbourne and Gippsland services, including travel between sites and, where needed, within the community.
