**Our Purpose and Ambition**

NextSense is a not-for-profit organisation supporting people with vision or hearing loss across Australia. We work with children, adults, and their families, providing a holistic approach to hearing services for newborns through to people over 90 years old, and helping children who are blind or have low vision to develop the right skills, mobility, and independence to confidently explore their world.

NextSense has been breaking boundaries since 1860, and we’ve been expanding our services ever since. Today, we deliver world-class education (both to children with sensory loss and to professionals in the field), cochlear implants, allied health services, therapy, research, and clinical services to children and adults. We’re a registered NDIS provider, working with our clients to achieve their own goals and potential.

We’re committed to research and innovation; harnessing the latest technologies and new ways of thinking and educating the next generation to lead the way in hearing and vision services.

We recently opened our new world-leading centre for innovation on-site at Macquarie University. This nationally significant social infrastructure project was undertaken to nurture, trial and share new ideas and form new partnerships that will drive better outcomes for people who are deaf, hard of hearing, blind or have low vision.

NextSense has an exciting opportunity for a Specialist Teacher (Deaf / Hard of Hearing - Itinerant Teacher) to join our School Support Service team at Macquarie Park.

- Delivering education programs to students based at different schools in accordance with the vision, mission, values and standards of NextSense.
- Embracing a culture of quality and innovation that enhances educational opportunities and outcomes for children with sensory disability.

- Sharing knowledge and expertise generated within the department with others.
