• Support participants to access education, employment, health, and housing services
• Provide mentoring, coaching, and community engagement activities
• Identify and respond to risks or wellbeing concerns
• Maintain accurate case notes and communicate effectively with families and providers

About You

• Qualifications in Youth Work, Social Work, or Community Services, plus current First Aid, WWCC, and NDIS worker screening check.
• Experience working with vulnerable, disengaged, or NDIS-participating young people (minimum 6 months)
• Strong communication, empathy, and relationship-building skills
• Understanding of NDIS principles, trauma-informed and strengths-based practice
• Ability to work independently in community settings
• Commitment to inclusion, safety, and the rights of young people

Why Join Us?

• Be part of an innovative organisation combining NDIS and community-based youth supports
• Flexible, person-centred working environment
