We aim to deliver person-centred support that is compassionate, respectful, and tailored to the unique needs of each participant. Our team of Disability Support Workers (DSWs) plays a vital role in helping individuals live with dignity, achieve their goals, and participate meaningfully in their communities—whether in their own homes or supported accommodation.

** Why Join Us?**
We are currently seeking compassionate and committed DSWs to join our growing team in Brisbane, QLD, on a **contractual (sole trader/ABN) basis**.

- Access to a supportive Sydney-based on-call team of qualified Registered Nurses.

**Role Details**:

- We regularly offer shifts across various times, including weekdays, evenings, weekends, nights, and public holidays (with relevant penalty rates and allowances).
- Some roles may require transporting participants to community activities (appointments, shopping, school, etc.). For these, you’ll be reimbursed for both travel time and vehicle usage.

**What You’ll Need to Join Us**:

- A registered ABN (easy and free to register under your personal name).
- Proof of working rights in Australia (e.g., Citizenship, Permanent Residency, or relevant visa).
- Certificate III in Individual Support or equivalent qualification.
- **NDIS Worker Screening Check (NDISWC)** - current and valid.
- Current Police Check (issued within the last 3 years).
- Valid First Aid Certificate (within 3 years) and CPR (within 1 year).
