Join a Team That Makes a Real Difference

Are you passionate about supporting others to achieve their goals and live fulfilling lives? At Life Choice, we believe that disability support is more than just a job — it's a calling to uplift, empower, and walk alongside people in their daily lives.

Do you bring energy, integrity, and heart into every shift — whether it's supporting with personal care, cooking dinner, helping someone attend a concert, or just being the calm in someone's storm?

We're looking for Support Workers who live and breathe our core values of Trust, Respect, Integrity, Community, and Innovation (TRICI). If you're committed, compassionate, and ready to work hard to help others thrive, we'd love to hear from you.

This work is not always easy, but it's deeply rewarding — and we're here to back you every step of the way.

Why Join Life Choice?

Life Choice is a not-for-profit provider that has proudly supported the Fraser Coast community for over 30 years. When you join us, you're joining a team that puts people first — both our participants and our staff.

We offer:

  • A positive and professional workplace built on trust and collaboration

  • Flexible working hours to support your lifestyle

  • Access to salary packaging (pay less tax, take home more)

  • Exclusive discounts with 100+ retailers through our employee incentives program

  • Ongoing training and development – no experience? We'll support you to learn on the job

  • Free mental health support through our Employee Assistance Program and Mental Health First Aid Officer

  • A commitment to quality and accountability as a fully registered NDIS provider

About the Role

At Life Choice, we don't just care — we lead, innovate, and empower. Our team work alongside people with disability to achieve meaningful outcomes that foster independence, confidence, and genuine inclusion within their communities. You'll be supporting participants in every part of life, from developing independence to building confidence and connection in the community.

Your responsibilities may include:

  • Supporting personal care routines (showering, dressing, toileting, etc.)

  • Assisting with medication (administering and recording)

  • Encouraging community participation (e.g. shopping, recreation, appointments)

  • Helping build communication, life, and social skills

  • Assisting with household tasks (meal prep, cleaning)

  • Completing reports in line with Life Choice procedures

You'll be working across a variety of shifts, including afternoons, evenings, sleepovers, and day shifts, across in Hervey Bay and Maryborough.

Who We're Looking For

We want to work with people who are genuinely committed to making a difference. Experience in the disability sector is valued but not essential. What matters most is your attitude and values.

You are:

  • Someone who cares deeply about helping others reach their goals

  • Committed to upholding values of respect, integrity, and trust

  • Comfortable working flexibly across a 7-day roster

  • Open to learning and personal growth

  • A team player who communicates openly and professionally

Essential requirements:

  • A current QLD Driver's Licence

  • Access to a mobile phone and email

  • Willingness to obtain (if not already held):

  • NDIS Worker Screening Card (Yellow Card)

  • Working With Children Check (Blue Card)

  • First Aid and CPR Certificate

  • Criminal History Check

High Desirable (but not required):

  • Experience with disability support or complex behaviours

  • Experience with personal care or PBSPs and restrictive practices.

  • Cert III or higher in Individual Support (or working towards)

  • Availability for overnight and weekend work

Our Values – TRICI

We hold ourselves and each other to high standards. Life Choice's workplace culture is grounded in:

  • Trust – Building honest and positive relationships

  • Respect – Treating every person with dignity and value

  • Integrity – Acting ethically and transparently in all we do

  • Community – Creating a strong sense of belonging and connection

  • Innovation – Encouraging new ideas and continuous improvement

These aren't just words on a poster — we live by them, and we're looking for team members who do the same.

Rewards & Remuneration

  • Competitive salary based on experience and qualifications

  • Salary packaging up to $18,550 per year

  • Opportunity to grow within a trusted and supportive organisation
