About Us

At Devoted Abilities, we're a small, collaborative service that puts quality over quantity. We're proud of our close-knit team and the strong relationships we build with both staff and participants.

We don't just provide support: we create opportunities. Alongside daily supports, we run innovative community access programs that empower people to grow and connect. Our flagship program, Empowered Hoops, is an inclusive basketball training experience designed to be fun, social, and confidence-building. We also explore creative projects, gaming, music, and outdoor activities, keeping support engaging and meaningful.

We're looking for someone who wants to grow with us, bring their own energy, and be part of programs that make a real difference.

The Role

No formal qualifications or previous experience needed. We'll provide you with training, mentorship, and support to learn the ropes. However certificate III in individual support is highly preferable.

As a Support Worker Trainee, you'll:

  • Work alongside experienced mentors while supporting people with disabilities in their daily lives.
  • Be involved in community access programs like Empowered Hoops, social activities, and skill-building projects.
  • Learn how to balance care, independence, and fun in every interaction.
  • Develop leadership, communication, and teamwork skills that set you up for growth.

What We Offer

  • Structured training and mentoring.
  • Opportunity to be part of unique programs you won't find anywhere else.
  • A supportive, energetic team culture.
  • A clear path to grow into a qualified Support Worker role.

Who We're Looking For

  • Someone motivated, reliable, and willing to learn.
  • Positive energy and a good sense of teamwork.
  • Ability to connect with people and bring out their best.
  • An interest in sports, outdoor activities, or creative projects is a bonus, but not essential.

We encourage applications from all backgrounds and genders. If you're keen to learn, get hands-on experience, and be part of something bigger than yourself, this is the role for you.
