- Ability to work in a fast-paced environment both independently and as part of a team.
- Sound knowledge of NDIS and/or experience in employment services or similar industry is highly favourable.

At The Disability Trust, we offer more than just a job. Grow your career with an organisation that is person-centred and people focused.
