About Us

At AYA Home and Community Services, we believe true care goes beyond practical support; it’s about creating meaningful connections. As an NDIS-registered provider, we focus on supporting Australia’s immigrant and CALD (Culturally and Linguistically Diverse) communities by matching participants with culturally aligned support workers who understand their language, background, and values.

A portion of our profits goes back into the community through our not-for-profit partner, AusUnityAid, a not-for-profit social enterprise empowering multicultural and CALD communities. AusUnityAid delivers culturally responsive care, educational opportunities, youth leadership programs, mental health advocacy, and digital literacy training.

The Role

We are seeking a Casual Business Development & Community Engagement Officer to help us grow our network and connect with the people who need us most. This role is perfect for someone who is passionate about community, enjoys building relationships, and is looking for flexible work that makes a real impact.

Key Responsibilities:

• Identify and connect with referral partners (support coordinators, community organisations, LACs, migrant resource centres).
• Build and nurture relationships across CALD and NDIS networks.
• Represent AYA at community events, presentations, and outreach activities.
• Share information about our services through community channels (flyers, local boards, social media groups).
• Support growth initiatives that align with our mission and values.

About You

We’re looking for someone who is:

• Community-minded, with strong interpersonal and communication skills.
• Confident reaching out and building relationships.
• Familiar with NDIS and/or community services (desirable but not essential).
• Bilingual or connected to multicultural communities (highly regarded).
• Self-motivated, reliable, and aligned with AYA’s mission of supporting immigrant communities.

What We Offer

• Casual role: approx. 3–4 hours a few days per week, with flexibility.
• Opportunity to work in a purpose-driven organisation making a difference in people’s lives.
• Be part of a growing team, with potential to expand your role as the organisation grows.
• Competitive casual hourly rate.
