What we're looking for

No formal qualifications needed — we hire for the person and train the rest. You'll be:

• Reliable: on time, every time, and clear in your written shift notes
• After meaningful, purpose-driven work rather than just a job
• Energised by helping others learn, grow and have fun
• Comfortable following a support plan and asking when you're unsure
• Experience in disability support, mentoring, youth work, teaching or coaching is a plus, not a must.

You'll need (or be willing to obtain)

• NDIS Worker Screening Check
• First Aid and CPR certificates
• A reliable car with comprehensive insurance

Where this can go

Reliable, high-performing casuals are first in line for part-time and full-time roles, pay point progression and internal opportunities. We'd rather grow people than churn them, and we want mentors who plan to stay.
