About MoneyMob Talkabout

We are a values and evidence driven for-purpose organization.
We work in the remote Indigenous communities of the APY Lands, far north SA.

We advocate, influence, build & share knowledge to tackle inequality. Our programs include the Mimili Family Wellbeing Centre, financial counselling & capability, No Interest Loans and energy efficiency education. We are developing our knowledge in trauma-informed practice, critical to achieving wellbeing.

Our vision: Aboriginal people and communities are empowered to achieve economic wellbeing and self-determination. In this, Aboriginal people are equal partners in and co-creators of our practice.

We're a young organisation that's achieved big things. Our advocacy work on unconscionable mobile phone sales to Indigenous clients led directly to the imposition of Australia's second-largest corporate fine. We've had over half a million dollars in debt waived for our clients since 2018.

At MoneyMob, you won't be bored. We're always learning, and we want you to as well. We work hard, but care about each other. Our culture is informal but smart; we value transparency, accountability, self-awareness and a thoughtful approach. Plus laughing and chocolate!

Reporting to the Team Leader of Financial Counselling you will also perform duties such as following up on referrals, reviewing case plans, meeting with vulnerable community members to establish strategies with them as well as providing education around financial literacy. 

This opportunity will suit an insightful professional who can adapt their pace to the community. With your deep relationship, case management and capacity building skills, you'll have the chance to influence a newly emerging program area.

  • A Diploma of community services / financial counselling (MoneyMob is willing to reimburse the right applicant in obtaining this qualification);
  • Exceptional case management and community services skills, particularly in a remote Indigenous environment;
  • Outstanding organisation and interpersonal communication skills;
  • A high degree of emotional intelligence; and
  • Curiosity and a strong willingness to learn and grow within the community
