About the role

Do you have a passion for sport, recreation, and developing communities?

We are looking for an Active Communities Coordinator (full-time) to join our Fitzroy Valley team. This position has the unique opportunity to build relationships with local people, schools, and service providers. Through those relationships, you will plan, implement, and deliver Garnduwa’s Kimberley Active Community (KAC) Project and other programs and activities across the Fitzroy Valley region, and surrounding remote communities.

This varied position provides the opportunity to travel, be active and guide communities toward positive behaviours and healthy lifestyles. The role is based in Fitzroy Crossing; however, it has a Kimberley-wide footprint and the ability to travel regularly and remotely is an integral requirement of this role. 

The Active Communities Coordinator provides support and supervision to the region’s Community Recreation Officers (casual staff). 

 A fantastic opportunity to join a well-renowned, respected, and long-standing organisation, and develop your experience in Indigenous health and wellbeing.   

 

About us

At Garnduwa, you can contribute to making a positive impact in the Kimberley region. Our work takes place in various remote Aboriginal communities, providing you with the opportunity to immerse yourself in Aboriginal culture and language.

We are dedicated to implementing best practices that promote positive outcomes and results for Aboriginal health and wellbeing.

As a reputable and long-standing Kimberley organisation, we prioritise cultural safety and are Aboriginal-owned and led. Our commitment to improving health and wellbeing and access to community engagement is highly valued.

We offer job security, organisational stability, peer support, as well as personal and professional development opportunities
