The vacancy
The Financial Wellbeing Specialist provides expert, rights-based advice on benefits and entitlements for individuals with visual impairments, including veterans.

The Specialist manages an independent caseload, with referrals primarily received through Vision Information & Support Advisors or Vision Link Workers, and collaborates with Vision Link Workers when in-person client support is required. The focus is on helping clients access the financial support they are entitled to, ensuring accuracy in all work, and promoting clients’ rights while operating within the scope of financial advice.
