Fairfield, Australia Hireup Full time

Hello, nice to meet you

We are an online platform and community for people with disability and their families, anywhere in Australia, to find, book and manage local support workers who fit their needs and share their interests.

By becoming a support worker with Hireup, you can connect with clients and other disability service providers near you. You will be able to search and message clients, and accept shifts that fit your level of expertise and schedule.

Unlike with traditional disability service providers where you are given shifts and have little say over who you support, at Hireup you will be in charge of proactively building your roster, ensuring you and the Hireup clients you connect with are always in control.

**Specialised Support - Duties and Responsibilities**:
The support you will provide to someone with complex support needs varies for each person. Support needs and goals are directed by the person or their informal supports. Implement safe and effective infection control, identify risk and work within the parameters of your role.

They may include and not limited to:

- Transport to appointments
- Shopping
- Personal care
- Reading and implementing complex support plans
- Support with social and community connections
- Requirements for complex support such as managing crises and assisting clients to access their professional networks.

**Skills Required**:
For this specific position we are hiring, you will need:

- To be flexible to work a minimum of 3 shifts (16+ hours) per week across a range of times including mornings, afternoons, evenings, overnights and weekends
- To be willing to complete aged care shifts
- Certificate III in Individual Support (Disability or aged care) or higher
- 100 points of identification
- Valid NDIS Worker Screening Check
- NDIS Worker Orientation Module Certificate of Completion
- National police check (issued within last 24 months)
- First Aid certificate
- Unrestricted Australian driver’s licence, if providing transport
- Be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 vaccine and preferably vaccinated against the flu

**Desirable**:

- Working with Children Check (or have ability to obtain)
- Previous experience in working with people with disability, elderly or another associated support service
- Demonstrated ability to build strong and mutually beneficial relationships using advanced communication and interpersonal skills
- Be committed to undertaking and maintaining a Medication competency
- Willingness to learn and gain qualifications on the job as supported by Hireup

If successful, we will employ you as a support worker, which will grant you access to use our platform to connect with clients and other disability and aged care providers. As an employee, you will not require an ABN, as you will be paid directly by us.

**Benefits**: Benefits of working with us include being covered by comprehensive insurance, flexible working arrangements that suit your schedule, career progression opportunities, and superannuation.

If you have experience in the following areas, support work may be a great career move to consider as your next opportunity: aged care / aged care worker; mental health support worker; personal care assistant; residential support worker; community support worker and community services; social worker; youth worker; nursing / nurse.
