Overview

We are seeking experienced and passionate Disability Support Workers with excellent availability to join our dedicated team in Innisfail, Qld. If you have a genuine commitment to making a positive impact in the lives of people with disabilities, and are flexible to work various shifts, including mornings, afternoons, overnights and weekends, we would love to hear from you

Benefits
  • Employee Assistance Program: Access to a free and confidential counselling service for you and your family members.
  • Wide range of training opportunities to help you grow professionally and develop your skills in a supportive and dynamic environment.
Role and responsibilities

Working within our SIL (Supported Independent Living) homes, you will provide support, assisting people with disabilities to live as independently as possible, whether they have complex needs or just need some additional support at home. No two days will be the same - you may hear that phrase a lot but here at Endeavour Foundation, you will see it in action

Other key duties will include:

  • Helping people to achieve their NDIS goals by developing important daily skills such as housekeeping, personal care, social skills and budgeting.
  • Assisting with aspects of personal care where required to meet the individual needs of the people we support.
  • Supporting with meal planning, cooking, light cleaning and facilitating community connection by socialising and going on outings.
  • Providing support during daily activities such as going for a walk, going to the movies or accompanying to an appointment.
  • Helping the people we support to maintain a connection to their family, friends, and services.
Qualifications and requirements
  • Your experience, empathy, and strong interpersonal skills will be invaluable in providing high-quality support and fostering independence for our clients.
  • A Certificate III in Individual Support (Disability) is advantageous.
  • Previous experience working in a SIL environment or supporting people with complex disabilities will be highly regarded.
  • Flexibility to work various shifts including days, evening, early morning, weekends and sleepovers (penalty rates apply).
  • The capacity to meet the physical requirements as some manual handling tasks may be involved.
  • Commitment to privacy and confidentiality.
  • Good computer skills and experience using Word, Excel and Outlook.
  • Hold or be willing to obtain a Working with Children Check (Blue Card), NDIS Worker Screening Check (Yellow Card), First Aid, CPR, National Criminal History Check (Fit2Work), and an open Driver's License with comprehensive insurance on your vehicle.

Endeavour Foundation supports people with disabilities to live, learn, work and flourish according to their own interests and priorities. We are people working together, making possibilities a reality for people with a disability, and for people seeking employment, education and training opportunities. We focus on ability, on dreams, goals and potential.
