As a Catholic school governed by Mercy Education, we are committed to upholding the values of justice, service, respect, and hospitality in all that we do.
We welcome expressions of interest from passionate educators and support staff who are eager to make a difference in the lives of young people. Whether you're a teacher, leader, administrator, or support team member, your contribution matters.
Applications and expressions of interest are treated as confidential and referee checks are completed after we have met with you. The College reserves the right to contact referees not listed on your resume.
This College community promotes the safety, wellbeing and inclusion of all children.
Set against a spectacular coastal backdrop, Warrnambool is one of Victoria’s most vibrant and liveable regional cities. With a population of around 35,000 and growing, it offers the perfect balance of professional opportunity and relaxed lifestyle — making it an ideal destination for individuals, couples, and families considering a meaningful sea or tree change. Located in South-West Victoria, Warrnambool is well connected to Melbourne via rail and the Princes Highway and serves as a key regional centre for health, education, business, and government services. The city is home to a major hospital and health precinct, quality early childhood education, excellent primary and secondary schools, and a dynamic tertiary presence.
APPLICATION PROCESS
Application form
The Child Safe Standards require schools to gather, verify and record a person’s history of work involving children. The College takes child safety and wellbeing seriously and for this reason, potential staff and volunteers are required to list their entire work history involving children.
The selection and interview process
Applicants will be selected and shortlisted by College leaders. A panel interview will be conducted with the aim of assessing the suitability of the person for the position. The interview will cover your suitability to support and champion a culturally diverse and safe environment for child safety and wellbeing.
Referee checks
Child safety and wellbeing is at the forefront of who we are and for that reason we make it a practice to conduct referee checks for potential staff to assess their suitability to work with children. The referee check is a discussion between the College and the nominated referee for the purpose of addressing the person’s suitability for the job and for engaging in child-connected work.
Pre-engagement Checks - Working with Children Clearance (WWCC) & Victorian Institute of Teaching (VIT) Registration
All staff at Emmanuel College are required to maintain registration of either an employee WWCC or VIT card.
