About the Role

We are seeking a Peer Community Support Worker to join our team within the HASI Program in the Wollondilly and Wingecarribee area.

What is Peer Work?

Poor work is a special kind of support where the person helping has their own lived experience of mental health challenges, recovery, or using services. A peer worker is someone who has 'been there too' and now uses that experience to walk alongside others, not as an expert to fix, but as someone who understands the journey.

  • Collaborating with customers to develop individualised support plans that incorporate their identified needs, strengths, and goals.
  • Providing support to customers to improve their independence by assisting with skill development, transport, social activities, supporting with finances, attending appointments, cooking, medication and personal care, as well as other supports as required.
  • Supporting and encouraging our customers to participate in activities of their choice, such as social, leisure, sporting, educational, employment activities, etc.
The Ideal Candidate
  • A positive, authentic, inclusive personality who brings their whole self to work every day.
  • A strong set of values that guides your work, incorporating passion, integrity & respect.
  • Great computer skills with proven ability to use Microsoft Office and customer relationship management systems.
  • Minimum Cert IV in Peer Work, or equivalent industry experience as a Peer Worker.
