As a nationwide NDIS provider, we deliver person-centred services including Supported Independent Living (SIL) and tailored disability support. Our approach is led by the heart and grounded in mindfulness, self-care, and community wellness.

We're currently seeking compassionate and enthusiastic Casual Senior Support Workers to join our team in a female-only SIL home on the northern Gold Coast, supporting one participant. This is a flexible, casual role ideal for someone who thrives in a dynamic environment and is passionate about making a meaningful difference.

You'll be supporting a female participant who values calm routines, personal space, and respectful, empowering interactions. She is working toward greater independence and wellbeing, with support to manage daily living and build confidence in accessing the community.

This role involves supporting someone with complex support needs, including emotional regulation and behaviours that may escalate under stress. A trauma-informed, person-centred approach is essential, along with the ability to remain calm and responsive in challenging situations.

Experience in mental health, complex care, or crisis response is highly regarded. You'll be part of a supportive team helping her feel safe, respected, and empowered in her home and community.

  • Assisting with personal care and hygiene
  • Preparing nutritious meals
  • Helping build and maintain routines
  • Encouraging community participation
  • Supporting the development of independent living skills

The Roster: Flexible Options to suit your lifestyle

This role offers a consistent fortnightly roster with up to 72 hours across a variety of shifts, including:

  • 6am to 2pm
  • 2pm to 10pm
  • 10pm to 6am (inactive overnight)

We're looking for team members who can commit to a minimum of 3–4 shifts per fortnight, with the opportunity to pick up additional shifts during staff leave or increased support needs.

What we are looking for

  • Minimum 2 years' experience as a Disability Support Worker, including SIL experience
  • Proven ability to support participants with high or complex needs
  • Skilled in managing challenging behaviours with a trauma-informed, person-centred approach
  • Strong communication, emotional resilience, and decision-making skills
  • Commitment to promoting independence, dignity, and quality of life

Required Certifications

  • NDIS Screening/Yellow Card
  • First Aid and CPR Certificate
  • Driver's licence
  • Reliable vehicle with comprehensive car insurance

Desirable (but not mandatory)

  • Cert IV in mental health or equivalent
  • Maybo Training – Positive Behaviour Support or similar

Key Attributes

  • Organised and proactive
  • Strong teamwork and communication skills
  • Comfortable using technology
  • Empathetic, patient, and committed to participant wellbeing

Why Join Us?

At Young Mindz, we value empathy, respect, and collaboration. You'll be part of a supportive, empowering team dedicated to enhancing participants' well-being and fostering their independence.

We're also committed to your growth, offering ongoing training in Positive Behaviour Support, trauma-informed care, and more.
