REF 5675 - On-call Crisis Worker
This critical Hutt organisation provides support for vulnerable members of our community. In this role you will be supporting the specialist crisis workers on an on-call basis. Ideally you will have outstanding communication skills, a high level of professionalism, ability to work in a high pressure environment, and a kind empathetic heart. This is a very challenging but equally rewarding opportunity. Full support and training will be provided to you.
REF 6309 - Youth Support
This wonderful agency gives our local kids and teenagers the opportunity to take a different path in life and build their self confidence. They are looking for someone who is able to connect with younger people and guide them in the right direction. You must be a kind, encouraging, and non-judgmental person to be the right fit for this role. Interest in any crafts / sports activities is also a bonus. Full support and training will be provided to you.
