What I Will Be Doing:

As a Support Worker in a day program and respite setting, I will empower customers to live as independently and confidently as possible, supporting them in developing daily living skills, maintaining their health and well‑being, and staying actively connected to their community.

- I will support customers in day‑to‑day life, including personal care and health needs.
- I will facilitate engaging group activities – art, music, swimming, gardening, or drama.
- I will build strong, respectful relationships with customers and their families.
- I will be working with people with intellectual disability, high physical support needs, or complex behaviours.
- I will use my skills in manual handling, PEG feeding, administering medication and providing transport.
- I am flexible to work on a rotating roster, preferably from 9:00 am – 6:00 pm, weekdays and days/nights on weekends.

As a Northcott Support Worker, you’ll provide personalised, meaningful support to customers in a day program or respite setting. No two days are ever the same — one day, you could be leading a creative art session, and the next, you are helping with daily living tasks to support independence and well‑being.

At Northcott, we prioritise your well‑being and success. Our team enjoys a wide range of benefits designed to support work‑life balance, financial well‑being, and personal growth:

- 5 Weeks Annual Leave – Enjoy extra time off to rest, recharge, and maintain a healthy work‑life balance.
- Salary Packaging – Boost your take‑home pay with salary packaging options, including up to $15,900 for general expenses and $2,650 for meals and entertainment.
- Perkbox – Access everyday savings, exclusive discounts, and wellbeing tools — our way of supporting you beyond your pay.
- Exclusive Discounts & Benefits – Save on health insurance, gym memberships, motor services, and more.
- Family‑Friendly Workplace – Enjoy flexibility and support to help you balance your work and home life.
- Learning & Career Growth – Access ongoing training, development, and career advancement opportunities where your contribution is recognised and valued.
