We specialise in:

Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA)
Community access and capacity building
Complex supports, including forensic, psychosocial, and high-intensity care
Our work is structured, intentional, and outcome-focused, supporting participants to build stability, independence, and quality of life.
At our core, we operate with respect, dignity, and accountability not just as values, but as standards in every shift.
Working at Empress means being part of a structured and supported environment, not just picking up shifts.
You’ll be part of a team that values:
Clear communication
Consistency in support delivery
Professional growth
Accountability and teamwork
We invest in our staff through:
Ongoing training (NDIS Worker Orientation, high-intensity supports, forensic-informed practice)
Hands-on mentoring from experienced leaders and key workers
Structured rosters with consistency for both staff and participants
Exposure to complex and meaningful work that builds real capability
This is not just a job, it’s a place to build real experience in complex support environments.
We create an environment where staff feel supported, valued, and equipped to deliver high-quality support.
We offer transparent SCHADS Award rates, with penalties, overtime, and allowances applied correctly. Our team benefits from funded training, ongoing upskilling, and exposure to complex participant supports that build real capability.
Flexible employment options are available, including casual, part-time, and full-time roles across Melbourne and surrounding areas. We provide clear pathways into Key Worker, Team Leader, and House Coordinator positions, supporting long-term career growth.
At Empress, we maintain a structured and supportive culture, with strong leadership, clear expectations, and a team that supports one another. The work is meaningful, supporting participants with complex needs to live safely, build independence, and improve their quality of life.
What Makes Empress Different
Most providers talk about care. We focus on structure, consistency, and outcomes.
Our teams operate within clear routines and support frameworks, guided by behaviour support-informed practice and low-stimulus, safety-focused environments where required. Every setting is supported by strong leadership and ongoing oversight.
We don’t just place staff. We build support systems that work.
