- Excellent organizational skills, enabling effective monitoring and management of participant progress through all stages of the NDIS process.
- The ability to work sensitively with individuals living with psychosocial disabilities, their families, and carers.
- Qualifications in human services or a related field, combined with relevant work experience in psychosocial disability.
- Demonstrated experience working with individuals with psychosocial disabilities and supporting them in accessing and utilizing NDIS support.
- An excellent understanding of NDIS eligibility criteria as it applies to psychosocial disabilities.
Flourish Australia offers a comprehensive benefits package, including:
- A salary of approximately $99,000 + 11.5% superannuation + salary packaging options up to $15,900 tax-free.
- Generous leave provisions, including 17.5% leave loading + 2 additional days of personal leave + extra day paid leave over Christmas/New Year + paid parental leave + accrued days off.
- Access to our free, confidential employee assistance program.
- Inclusive initiatives, such as our Rainbow Network and YarnUp for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander staff.
