From the moment you step through our doors, you'll feel welcome and supported to do your best work and really make a difference in people's lives.
Who are you?
You come with a background in disability, mental health, nursing, social work, or an allied health discipline
You understand community services and NDIS funding
You have experience writing person-centred support plans
You have experience networking and creating long-standing relationships with key stakeholders
Ideally, we are looking for someone who is comfortable visiting people in their own homes to discuss how we can assist them and assess any risks we may need to be aware of.
You will need to have the ability to juggle more than one thing at a time; this is a fast-paced role and you will need to have an ability to prioritise and manage conflicting tasks and requests.
We are looking for someone with an understanding that living with a disability can be tough and genuinely wants to make a difference in client's lives. You need to be a good listener and communicator and have an empathetic attitude.
Key components of the role include:
Building and maintaining a great network of referrers who will help you achieve your targets
Meeting clients and their families and understanding the supports they need
Creating person-centred support plans that reflect the client's needs and aspirations
Ensuring that clients and referrers have a positive experience
Undertaking client risk assessments to keep everyone safe
Heaps of 'feel-good' times. We get to really make a difference, and that feels amazing!
Our head office is located in Mulgrave, in the heart of the south-east suburbs, and we also have an office in Geelong– so when you're not visiting clients, you will work between the office and home.

Valid and current Victorian Driver's Licence
NDIS Worker Screening Clearance and Working with Children Check (or willing to obtain)
