Description

Support that’s built on trust. Work that actually matters.

Great disability support doesn’t come from rushing, rotating staff or rigid routines. It comes from relationships, consistency and trust.

As a Disability Support Worker, you’ll support people with complex needs living in Supported Independent Living to build skills, routines and confidence. At their pace, in their way.

You’ll be trusted to:

  • Build strong, respectful relationships
  • Support daily living, personal care and community participation
  • Follow clear behaviour support and safety plans
  • Work as part of a stable, communicative team
  • You’re empathetic, reliable and experienced in supporting people with complex mental health and cognitive conditions, including behaviours of concern such as:
    • Paranoid Schizophrenia
    • Borderline Personality Disorder
    • Intellectual Disability
    • PTSD
    • Dementia

This role suits someone who values calm, professionalism and doing support with people, not to them.

In return, you’ll receive:

  • Supportive leadership that listens and responds
  • Consistent work and realistic expectations
  • SCHADS Award pay (Home Care Level 3–4)

If this sounds like the kind of support work you believe in, we’d love to hear from you.
