Support Worker – Launceston

Casual | $45–$83/hr | Flexible Hours | Real Impact

We're looking for someone awesome.

Achievement Support Services is on the lookout for a calm, kind, and switched-on Support Worker to join our crew in Launceston. If you're reliable, values-driven, and genuinely enjoy supporting people to live their best lives — we'd love to meet you.

This isn't just a "pop in and do the dishes" kind of role. It's meaningful, ongoing work with someone who'll benefit from having a steady, confident, and respectful person in their space.

About the role:

You'll be working closely with one of our long-term clients who lives independently and needs structured, consistent support across their week. This is a solo role — you'll be the main point of support, so clear boundaries, a grounded presence, and a gentle approach are key.

Shifts are steady and simple:

  • Mornings: 9:30am – 2:30pm
  • Evenings: 6:00pm – 9:00pm
  • Public holidays: 9:30am–11:30am and 6:00pm–8:00pm

We're offering a minimum of 10 hours per week, with potential to pick up more over time. This job slots in beautifully alongside other work, family life, or study.

What's involved:

  • Supporting daily routines (think meals, reminders, medication prompts, light cleaning)
  • Encouraging independence while respecting the client's pace and preferences
  • Providing emotional support and a calm, consistent presence
  • Maintaining clear communication with our team
  • Occasionally responding to challenging behaviours with patience and confidence

You don't need formal therapeutic qualifications — but if you've got experience with trauma-informed care, behavioural support, or just know how to hold your ground with warmth and respect, we consider that a huge bonus.

You'll need:

  • Working with Vulnerable People Check (TAS)
  • National Police Check (within 12 months)
  • Medical endorsement (or willingness to obtain)
  • Driver's licence and reliable vehicle
  • Strong communication, emotional maturity, and a sense of humour

What we offer:

  • $45–$83/hr, depending on shift time
  • A friendly, no-drama team that actually supports you
  • A consistent, meaningful role with a client who values routine
  • Guidance and debriefs when you need them — we've got your back
  • A workplace culture that balances compassion with clarity

How to apply:

No fluff required — just send:

  • A short cover letter telling us who you are and why this sounds like your kind of work
  • A resume with relevant experience

To:

Mindy Taber – Manager

We care about finding the right people — not just perfect CVs. If you're curious and want to chat more about what the role looks like day-to-day, don't hesitate to reach out.

Job Type: Casual

Pay: $45.00 – $83.00 per hour

Licence/Certification:

  • National police check (Required)
  • Working with Vulnerable People Registration (Preferred)
  • Current National Police Certificate (Required)
  • Driver Licence (Required)

Work Authorisation:

  • Australia (Required)

Work Location: In person
