About us

We're a rapidly scaling, not-for-profit disability support provider that believes in positively transforming the lives of people with disability. In doing so, we aim to create the highest quality agency we can, ideally reshaping the sector as a whole. This means we often do things differently. Since we began in 2015, we've made it our mission to examine every part of what a support provider does – from how we structure our teams, to how we recruit and roster, to how we ensure the highest quality support, to how technology acts as an enabler for all that we do.

Our clients tell us they notice this difference, and for many it's had a profound impact on their lives. Supporting more than 250 clients across metropolitan and regional Victoria and only continuing to grow, we want the people who join us to also believe disability support should enable a life of independence and dignity.

To do a great job, you'll need:

  • Good judgement and common sense, listening skills, a willingness to learn and a commitment to our values
  • Experience supporting people with a physical disability, including manual handling
  • Experience with PEG feeding, catheter care and bowel care a bonus but not necessary
  • Great patience and willingness to build rapport with clients
  • Enthusiasm and passion for supporting people with disabilities to live great lives
  • Commitment to working with a care team approach, including guidance from professionals
  • Full driver's license and willingness to drive clients' vehicle
  • Willingness to work varied shifts; sleepovers, day support including community access, in-home evening support with home duties required
  • Commitment to ongoing shifts (more than twice weekly)
  • We are looking to support clients based in Ballarat

Please note: When you apply, you will receive an email asking you for some further details - please look out for it As part of our recruitment process, certain checks will be undertaken with your permission, including an NDIS Worker Screening Check that you must have before you can start work. We encourage all of our staff to be vaccinated for COVID-19 and current recommendations about vaccination can be found on the ATAGI website.

A word about diversity and inclusion

At InLife, diversity and inclusion is part of our DNA. We celebrate the amazing differences we all bring to our work and we actively ensure that everyone feels safe and supported in our workplaces. We welcome and encourage applications from everyone and our hiring decisions will never be based on things such as your gender identity, disability, age, religion, ethnicity, sexual orientation or cultural background - because they simply aren't relevant to doing an awesome job.
