Multiple support worker roles — Adelaide Hills and metro Adelaide
Wheare Support Services supports people with disability across the Adelaide Hills and metro Adelaide.
We're a small, hands-on team — you'll be known by name, not by a payroll number.
We're currently hiring several experienced
male Support Workers
to support participants with daily living and community participation.
About the role
You'll mostly work one-on-one with participants, with occasional 1:2 shifts supporting two participants at once.
The work involves helping them get out, stay connected and build independence.
Shifts are typically a mix of support at home and time in the community:
Going for walks, grabbing a coffee, running errands
Getting to appointments and activities
Support with everyday living skills around the home
Social connection and helping participants pursue their own interests and goals
Occasional respite shifts
Occasional short interstate trips supporting participants to travel
Shift notes and incident reporting
Most shifts involve one or two activities at an easy pace, rather than a packed schedule.
This role does not involve personal care.
We match workers to participants deliberately and keep those matches stable, so you build genuine relationships rather than meeting someone new every shift.
Work is available across the Adelaide Hills and metro Adelaide, and we build rosters around your availability.
Alongside regular shifts, we occasionally offer respite work and short interstate trips supporting participants to travel.
These are entirely optional — if they're not for you, that's no problem, and if they are, they're a genuinely enjoyable part of the job.
What you'll bring
Essential
Previous paid support work experience
Reliability and punctuality — participants plan their week around their supports, so this matters more than anything else on this list
Good communication, patience and an easy-going manner
Current Australian driver's licence and a confident driver — a fair bit of this role involves driving, including Hills and country roads.
A work vehicle is provided.
NDIS Worker Check (SA)
Working with Children Check (SA)
NDIS Worker Orientation Module — "Quality, Safety and You"
First Aid and CPR [current / or willing to obtain]
Full working rights in Australia
Highly regarded
Certificate III or IV in Individual Support (Disability) or Community Services — a bonus, not essential.
Solid hands-on experience matters more, and we'll support you to gain your Cert III.
A note on these roles

What we offer
Above-award pay with penalty rates
Meal allowance on shifts longer than 8 hours
Work vehicle provided — you won't be using your own car or covering the fuel
Adaptable rosters built around your availability
Consistent participant matching
Ongoing training, supervision and a manager who picks up the phone
