Look no further Y Whittlesea has an exciting casual opportunity for compassionate and dedicated Disability Camp Support Workers to join us for the School Holidays at Billabong Ranch in Echuca. There's potential for ongoing camp work during school holidays. Don't miss out

Bring your passion and enthusiasm to the Y Camp Journeys, where every day is filled with laughter, growth, and heartwarming moments.

Who on earth are we?

Y Whittlesea is a not-for-profit that happens to be the oldest youth organisation in the world and oldest social enterprise where all profits go back into our communities.

We are passionate about delivering person-centred support, services and programs. We empower people with a disability, providing them with opportunities to participate in inclusive and innovative programs. At Y Whittlesea, we provide the foundation for people to achieve their goals and empower them to lead dignified lives.

What's the opportunity?

As we continue to grow, we are looking for passionate Disability Camp Support Workers to join our Camps Program during the School holiday (with potential for ongoing camp work).

Our fun, exciting and unique camps provide participants with a sense of adventure and achievement. The activities focus on building independent living skills, social skills, and community access.

As a Disability Camp Support Worker, you will provide camp activities that are fun and flexible to children, teenagers and adults with varying disabilities. Your mission is to ensure every participant embarks on thrilling adventures, hones their skills, enjoys social interactions, and achieves personal milestones.

What do we hope you'll bring?

  • You need the legal right to live and work in Australia. (Sorry - it is what it is).
  • A genuine passion for working in the disability sector
  • Experience in Disability Services Sector (Just starting out? We'd love to hear from you too)
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills
  • Being flexible and reliable
  • Willingness to give 110% attention to building life skills and the care of people with disability
  • Current Employee Working with Children
  • Current NDIS Worker Clearance Check
  • International Police check if you have lived outside Australia in the last 5 years
  • Current First Aid and CPR certificate
  • Oh, and here's another one. We trust you. We also care about you. In return, you'll bring an innate work ethic, respect and care for others, and consistent integrity to all that you do.

Why should I want to be a Disability Camp Support worker at the Y?

Real purpose, passion and impact: at Y Whittlesea you will embark on a rewarding journey where you can make a positive impact in the lives of individuals with disabilities. All this whilst also knowing that you are part of something bigger: Disability services, Community Schools and much more where all surpluses go back into our communities that we work in.

We offer flexible workplace, a free gym membership, ongoing professional development opportunities and competitive rates.

Why might the Y not be right for me?

We rarely do ridiculous hours, but we do work very hard, every day.

You'll need to be highly organised, self-motivated and used to working as a team.

We value feedback highly, and will expect you to speak up, ask questions and share knowledge and we will do the same.

Ok, I'm in. How do I apply and stand out?

If you're really keen to explore this with us, we encourage you to put in some time to stand out. Please send your resume, answer a few questions on our application form and if you can, send us a cover letter telling us how great you are... your time to brag
