Melbourne, Victoria, Australia We See You Full time $45,000 - $90,000 per year

We See You is a small, values-driven NDIS provider founded and led by a social worker with a deep commitment to person-centred, trauma-informed care. With a focus on psychosocial disabilities, we offer tailored support that reflects each participant's unique needs, goals, and strengths, so they can live meaningful, self-directed lives. We pride ourselves on building strong, consistent relationships and delivering services that are both reliable and rooted in genuine care.

We are seeking a compassionate and reliable Mental Health Support Worker to join our team as a casual subcontractor.


About the Role

As a Mental Health Support Worker with We See You, you'll provide one-on-one support to NDIS participants in their homes and communities. Your role will focus on promoting independence, building confidence, and helping participants live meaningful lives.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Supporting daily living activities such as meal planning, grocery shopping, and meal preparation

  • Flexible hours: 6–10 per week to start, with the potential to increase as demand grows
  • Clients are matched to you based on location and support needs. Together, you'll agree on regular appointment times (usually once or twice per week), giving you flexibility to balance work with your other commitments. Most workers find they settle into consistent weekly hours with their clients.
  • While some weekend work may be available, weekday availability is essential.
  • We See You is a remote organisation with no fixed office. You'll work independently day to day, with ongoing support and guidance from your supervisor.

What We're Looking For

  • Prior experience in a mental health or community-related role
  • Trauma-informed and person-centred approach
  • Passion for helping others and willingness to learn

  • Public Liability and Professional Indemnity Insurance
  • NDIS Worker Screening Check (or willing to obtain)
  • Police Check
  • Working with Children Check
  • Driver's licence and access to a reliable, insured vehicle
