About the Organisation

Life Without Barriers is a leading social purpose, not for profit organisation of 7,000 employees working in more than 440 communities across Australia. We support children, young people and families, people with disability, older people and people with mental illness. We work with people who are homeless and refugees and asylum seekers.

We want to employ people who reflect the diversity of our clients to ensure we can support each client's individual needs and wants. We encourage people of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander background and people with disability to apply.

We are looking for Disability Support Workers with previous experience working in a group home setting with young adult clients to join our team on both a Permanent Part Time and Casual basis.

It is expected that successful candidates will be available and willing to work a 24/7 roster that includes regular shift work, including night shifts, weekends and public holidays.
