Ideally, You Have Lived experience of neurodivergence and/or being LGBTQIASB+ Insight into the communities we serve and the barriers we face A communication style that’s thoughtful and respectful A driver licence and access to a reliable, insured car (most travel is local, within 30 minutes, and we reimburse for km’s travelled) Some experience in disability support, community work, or a related field (a bonus, not a must) An NDIS Worker Screening Check (or you’re happy to get one) The ability to work independently, manage your own time, and check in when needed What’s In It For You Flexible hours that work around your life, energy, and capacity A low-pressure, high-trust environment where pacing yourself, asking for breaks, or saying “I need support” is welcomed An affirming and inclusive culture that centres around lived experience Ongoing training, supervision, and professional development, with options that fit your learning style and interests Creative freedom in how you co-design and deliver support A voice in shaping how we grow. Your ideas and feedback aren’t just welcomed, they’re deeply valued The chance to make a real difference in people’s lives, especially those who’ve been let down by providers, misunderstood, or left out by other systems We encourage applications from people with lived experience of neurodivergence, disability, or being LGBTQIASB+, as well as First Nations folks and people from culturally diverse backgrounds. If this sounds like your kind of thing, we’d love to hear from you.
