About you
You are a passionate and dedicated individual who is looking to make a difference in the community.

As a fun and creative person, you pride yourself on exceptional customer service whilst ensuring customers achieve their goals and aspirations.


You will also be able to clearly articulate and demonstrate:

  • Ability to build rapport with a diverse range of customers
  • Experience working with young customers with complex support needs
  • Driven, energetic & committed
  • Fun and creative outlook
  • Strong communication skills
