ABOUT US


The Salvation Army is one of Australia's largest and most-loved charities, helping thousands of Australians every year find hope in the midst of all kinds of personal hardship.

The Salvation Army offers the opportunity to use your skills and expertise to make a real difference in the lives of people who need help most.


The Salvation Army 'Doorways' community support model engages people at their point of need in a holistic way that is missional, relational and professional.

Plus other tasks as needed.


A friendly smile and warm welcome will help community members relax and connect over a cup of tea or coffee, as the Doorways Support Assistant takes a genuine interest in the person and how we can help.

Time required

Minimum of one day a week or as agreed with the manager

Qualifications and skills

Interest in meeting new people with sensitivity and showing empathy are essential for this role.
