Northern Beaches, Australia Sunnyfield Full time

About Sunnyfield

Sunnyfield is an industry-leading not-for-profit organisation with 1500 employees delivering over 2000 support services daily. For over 70 years, we have been supporting people with disability of all ages to be active, inclusive participants in their communities through innovative programs and person-centred active support plans.

Our staff are our valued partners and key to Sunnyfield’s success. As advocates of diversity, inclusivity and equality, we strive to have a team that reflects the diversity of the people we support, so their needs are met to the best of our ability.

This is a casual position with the potential to become a permanent.

- Ability to support others with personal and hygiene care - and happy for this to be part of your job
- Current Australian drivers licence
- Current First Aid and CPR certificate
