Skills
Job Description
Picture finishing your day knowing you actually moved the needle for someone. A veteran learning to manage a chronic condition. An older Australian trying to stay well and independent at home. That is the work here.
As a Social Worker with Veteran Pathways (part of the Proactive Health Group), you are the person who holds a client's care together from day one. You will run biopsychosocial assessments, take your seat in GP-led case conferences, shape the care plan, then walk alongside your client through a structured 90-day journey. No churning through a faceless queue. You own a caseload, and you get to watch people progress.
And you will do it from our brand new head office in the heart of Fortitude Valley, Brisbane. Where a genuine multidisciplinary team is behind you, and clinical supervision built to help you grow. If you have been craving quality of care over quantity of calls, consider this your sign.
Proactive Health Group is a national allied health network built around one idea: get people the right support for their health, wherever they are. We began with veterans and grew from there. Today, through Veteran Pathways (DVA-funded) and Proactive Care (Medicare-funded), we deliver GP-led, coordinated care to veterans and the wider community alike.
Our model is simple, and it works. Clients get advice, get a plan, and get ongoing support, with a GP and allied health team wrapped around each person. From veteran roots to national reach, Proactive Health connects local communities with proven health programs under a values-led model of trust, care and evidence.
About the role
As a Clinical Social Worker and Care Coordinator, you are the anchor of our Chronic Condition Management Program. You will own a caseload of veteran and Medicare clients and deliver everything by telehealth from a private, confidential setting.
You will run intake assessments, deliver care plans and lead 90-day reviews. You will coordinate referrals across a full allied health panel, including mental health social work, physiotherapy, podiatry, exercise physiology, dietetics and occupational therapy. You will have real clinical autonomy that grows as you do, backed by a Team Leader who is there when you need them. Every day looks a little different, and every client is a whole person rather than a checkbox.
What we will support you to achieve
Running comprehensive biopsychosocial assessments across physical health, mental health and social circumstances.
Coordinating care and navigating clients through the system as their go-to person.
Presenting your findings and psychosocial recommendations in GP-led multidisciplinary case conferences.
Delivering care plans and leading 90-day reviews, then feeding updates back to the GP.
Holding continuity through care coordination consults every two to three weeks.
Screening for risk and escalating early when something needs it.
Coordinating referrals and advocating for your clients across the team and the community.
Documenting cleanly in Halaxy, in line with AASW, Medicare and DVA standards.
You are a social worker who leads with empathy and backs it with clinical judgement. You build rapport quickly, even down a phone or video line, and you are comfortable holding your own in a case conference. You like collaborating, you communicate clearly, and you care about coordinated, whole-person care. Telehealth does not faze you. If anything, you are good at it.
- Tertiary qualification in Social Work (Bachelor or Master) providing eligibility for AASW membership.
- Current, unrestricted AASW membership, or eligibility to obtain it before commencement.
- Satisfactory National Police Check, provided prior to commencement.
- Disclosure of any relevant prior disciplinary or professional conduct history known to the AASW.
- A private, confidential space from which to deliver telehealth consultations.
