Make a real impact on employee wellbeing and recovery - APS5 to EL1 opportunities available now

We're currently looking to speak with experienced Rehabilitation Officers about a range of upcoming opportunities within a large Federal Government organisation based in Canberra.

Whether you're looking for a contract, permanent role or are interested in a Section 26 transfer, we'd love to hear from you.

These positions will see you supporting employees through injury management and return-to-work programmes, while working closely with managers, health practitioners and other key stakeholders to achieve positive outcomes.

What you'll be doing

  • Managing rehabilitation and return-to-work cases
  • Developing and monitoring recovery-at-work plans
  • Providing advice around injury management and workplace adjustments
  • Liaising with employees, managers, medical providers and relevant stakeholders
  • Supporting a positive approach to employee wellbeing and recovery
  • Ensuring processes align with relevant legislation and policy frameworks

What we are looking for

We're keen to hear from people with experience in:

  • Rehabilitation and injury management
  • Return-to-work coordination
  • Case management
  • WHS or employee wellbeing
  • Workers compensation or Comcare environments

You'll be a strong communicator, comfortable building relationships with a variety of stakeholders and able to manage competing priorities in a fast-paced environment.

Security Clearance

An NV1 clearance would be fantastic, but it's certainly not essential.

Our client is open to building a pipeline of strong candidates who are eligible to obtain a clearance and willing to go through the process.

This could be a great opportunity for someone currently in a stable role or on a longer-term contract who is open to planning their next move.

What you'll get in return

  • Opportunities from APS5 through to EL1 equivalent levels
  • Contract, permanent and Section 26 options available
  • Supportive teams and meaningful work
  • Future career opportunities within the Federal Government sector
  • Competitive remuneration based on experience

If you're interested in learning more, apply now or reach out to the Hays Canberra team for a confidential chat.

Please note: Australian Citizenship is required, and successful candidates must be eligible to obtain and maintain an NV1 security clearance.
