  • Extensive leadership experience in the disability sector, with strong knowledge of the NDIS Practice Standards and Quality & Safeguarding Framework

  • Demonstrated success managing multi-site services, complex participant needs, and large frontline teams

  • Proven ability to build workforce capability through coaching, supervision, and accountability frameworks

  • Strong judgement, problem-solving, and decision-making skills in complex operational and participant-related matters

  • Sound financial management skills, including experience monitoring budgets and ensuring sustainable service delivery

  • Highly developed interpersonal and influencing skills, with the ability to work collaboratively with participants, families, staff, and sector stakeholders

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including reports and representation at senior forums
