Your role
Join the Work Recovery & Oversight Team and help create safer workplaces while supporting staff to recover and return to work successfully. The Work Recovery & Oversight Team forms part of the Commercial Management division of Corrective Services NSW (CSNSW).
There are three distinct role types available across multiple locations. Whilst each role has a specific focus, they are designed to provide early, compassionate support to employees injured at work and to lead local responses to workplace safety incidents. Acting as a central coordination point for Work Health and Safety and Work Recovery processes, these positions are essential to maintaining a safe and supportive environment and to fostering a strong culture of safety, recovery, and continuous improvement.
While the roles share the same focus capabilities, they operate across three distinct streams of work. Please refer to the information pack for further details about each stream.
