This is a senior leader role at Frontline, so in addition to the experience needed, a commitment to and passion for better social work and a leadership approach that is anti racist, rooted in equity, diversity and inclusion is paramount.

If you feel you have the skills to make a real impact and contribute to creating lasting social change for children and families, we would love to hear from you.

We want to hear your authentic voice arising out of your experience, and we will be looking for answers that use examples and experiences that are specific to you.
