About The Opportunity
GEO is seeking a highly capable and experienced Senior Clinician to provide leadership across our Rehabilitation and Reintegration Services at Ravenhall Correctional Centre, with periodic involvement at the GEO Community Reintegration Centre.
This is an exceptional opportunity for clinicians ready to take the next step, leading multidisciplinary teams, influencing practice quality across complex environments, and driving system-level outcomes.
Senior Clinicians at GEO play a pivotal leadership role in the Continuum of Care model, ensuring high-quality assessment, intervention and reintegration support for prisoners and those transitioning post-release. If you are passionate about developing others, strengthening evidence-informed practice, and shaping the future of rehabilitation, this role offers significant scope for professional growth and impact.
Your Key Impact Areas
As a Senior Clinician, you will provide strategic and operational leadership to a multi-disciplinary team of clinicians delivering services both in custody and post-release. You will:
* Lead and manage a team of psychologists, social workers, counsellors and occupational therapists.
* Provide clinical supervision, coaching, mentoring and performance leadership to ensure high-quality, evidence-based practice.
* Offer expert clinical consultation to Clinical Managers, Corrections Victoria and stakeholder partners on rehabilitation pathways and the Continuum of Care.
* Review and allocate cases, balancing caseloads and aligning work to clinicians' strengths and experience.
* Ensure the delivery of best-practice assessments, risk evaluations, case formulations and behavior management plans.
* Strengthen program integrity by ensuring adherence to RNR principles, the Good Lives Model, therapeutic jurisprudence and GEO's Program Plan.
* Collaborate with custodial staff and alliance partners (Forensicare, GEO HealthCare Plus, YMCA and others) to ensure coordinated and effective service delivery.
* Maintain a small senior-level caseload involving complex presentations, ensuring leadership remains grounded in contemporary clinical practice.
* Manage post-release service scheduling and team involvement at the GEO Community Reintegration Centre.
* Drive continuous improvement, including data quality, report review, professional development and training facilitation.
This role combines leadership, clinical expertise, system influence and meaningful impact.
Ravenhall Correctional Centre is a national leader in rehabilitation, offering an integrated service system that spans in-custody treatment through to post-release support. With diverse prisoner profiles, specialist units, and strong partnerships with respected sector organisations, the work is both challenging and deeply meaningful.
Senior Clinicians play a central role in ensuring that every prisoner, regardless of complexity or background, receives the best opportunity to achieve change and succeed post-release.
Working in this role means playing a central part in GEO's mission to help people turn their lives around and supporting the teams who deliver that impact every day.
Please note: This role is based within correctional settings and will involve direct engagement with prisoners. A security clearance is required.
