Mount Barker, Australia AHH Lifeskills Full time

**About the Role**:
We’re looking for a confident and compassionate Disability Support Worker to join one of our Supported Independent Living (SIL) teams in Mount Barker. You’ll be working with two male residents, each with unique support needs. One client requires CPI-trained staff to assist with high-risk behaviours; the other benefits from a trauma-informed approach and a healthy dose of good humour and positive vibes.

Due to the specific behavioural support needs of one client, this role requires a support worker trained in CPI with experience managing physically challenging behaviours. Applicants must be comfortable with physical intervention and high-stress environments. The role may involve supporting a client with a history of aggression.

We value a calm, friendly personality — someone who’s genuinely people-focused, resilient, and maybe even has a bit of light-hearted banter (if that’s you, even better).

**What You’ll Do**:

- Provide daily living support (personal care, meals, domestic tasks)
- Support implementation of behaviour support plans and regulated restrictive practices
- Promote independence, social connection, and community access
- Work as part of a close-knit, collaborative team
- Maintain accurate documentation

**What We’re Looking For**:

- Experience supporting individuals with complex behaviours
- CPI training or equivalent (essential for this role)
- Knowledge of trauma-informed care
- A great communicator with emotional intelligence
- Reliable, adaptable, and committed to client-centred care
- A good sense of humour and approachable nature
- Fluent in English, familiar with Australian slang
- Driver’s licence + reliable car
- Valid NDIS Worker Screening Check, WWCC, and First Aid/CPR (or willingness to obtain)

**Why Join Us?**
- Competitive pay rates
- Flexible shifts & hours
- Passive sleepovers at above award rates
- Supportive, team-based environment
- Opportunities to work across day options, mentoring, and respite to supplement your roster
- Professional development and on-the-job training

**Ready to Apply?**
If you’re experienced, genuine, and ready to make a difference, we want to hear from you.

**Job Type**: Casual

Pay: From $41.79 per hour

Expected hours: 12 - 38 per week

**Education**:

- Certificate I - IV (preferred)

**Language**:

- Fluent English (required)

Licence/Certification:

- Working with Children Check (preferred)
- NDIS Worker Orientation Module (preferred)
- NDIS Worker Check (preferred)
- Australian driver's licence (required)
- First Aid (required)

Work Authorisation:

- Australia (required)

Work Location: In person

Expected Start Date: 22/04/2025
