Ready to make a real difference (and actually enjoy going to work)? Infinity Coordination & Supports is recruiting Disability Support Workers for an immediate start, with consistent shifts available across SIL, in-home supports, and community access in Albury/Wodonga.

The role

Disability Support Workers provide participant-centred supports that are safe, respectful, and aligned with individual support plans.
