Grade 2 Social Worker | Adult Acute | Casey Hospital
We are excited to be recruiting for an experienced Grade 2 Social Worker to join our Adult Acute Social Work team at Casey Hospital on a permanent part-time (0.8 EFT) basis.
This is a fantastic opportunity to join Monash Health's supportive and highly regarded Social Work team, where you'll have access to excellent professional development opportunities, ongoing career progression, and strong clinical support.
Working within a busy acute hospital environment, you'll provide high-quality psychosocial assessment, intervention and advocacy to adult patients and their families. From supporting people through unexpected diagnoses and life-changing events to facilitating complex discharge planning and connecting patients with the services they need, you'll play a vital role in delivering holistic, person-centred care.
As part of Monash Health's highly regarded Social Work Service, you'll work alongside experienced multidisciplinary teams where your clinical expertise is valued and your contribution has a genuine impact on patient outcomes.
At Monash Health, our Social Workers are integral members of the healthcare team, supporting patients and families across every stage of their healthcare journey. You'll be joining one of Victoria's largest Social Work Services, with opportunities to collaborate across a broad range of specialties while continuing to grow your own clinical expertise. You'll benefit from:
- Comprehensive clinical supervision and mentoring
- A supportive and experienced team of Social Workers
- Ongoing professional development and education opportunities
- Opportunities to contribute to quality improvement, service development and research
- Collaboration within a highly skilled multidisciplinary team
- Career pathways across one of Australia's largest public health services
Whether you're looking to consolidate your acute experience or explore future opportunities within specialist services, Monash Health offers a supportive environment where you can continue to develop throughout your career.
You're a compassionate and resilient Social Worker who enjoys working collaboratively and is committed to delivering high-quality, person-centred care. We're looking for someone who has:
- Eligibility for membership with the Australian Association of Social Workers (AASW)
- A minimum of two years' post-graduate experience, preferably within a healthcare setting
- Strong psychosocial assessment, intervention and complex discharge planning skills
- Excellent communication and relationship-building abilities
- Sound clinical judgement and the ability to manage competing priorities
- A collaborative approach to multidisciplinary practice
- A commitment to continuous learning and evidence-informed practice
Why Join Us?
Some of the most important moments in healthcare don't happen in an operating theatre or treatment room—they happen in conversations. The conversations where a patient begins to understand a life-changing diagnosis. Where a family finds reassurance during uncertainty. Where someone feels heard, supported and empowered to navigate what's next.
As a Social Worker at Monash Health, you'll be there for those moments.
You'll join a team that values compassion as much as clinical expertise, where you'll work alongside experienced colleagues who genuinely support one another and are committed to delivering exceptional patient-centred care. Every day will bring new challenges, opportunities to learn and the chance to make a meaningful difference in the lives of patients and families when they need it most.
If you're looking for a role where your knowledge, advocacy and empathy can create lasting impact—and where you'll be supported to continue growing throughout your career—we'd love to welcome you to our team.
