Join a Team That Genuinely Supports Each Other, While Building the Skills and Confidence to Become an Exceptional Practitioner.

At HandinHand Mental Health & Disability, we believe people do their best work when they feel supported, valued and connected to the people around them. We are a highly values-based organisation with a warm, collaborative team culture and a genuinely experienced group of practitioners and clinical leaders who enjoy sharing their knowledge, supporting each other and continuing to learn together.

As we continue to grow, we're looking for Behaviour Support Practitioners who want to be part of that culture, whether you're beginning your career and looking for the right place to learn, an experienced practitioner wanting solid clinical support, or an independent contractor looking for greater flexibility without working in isolation.

We value kindness, professional integrity, collaboration, curiosity and respect. We want our practitioners to have a voice, feel comfortable asking for support and have access to experienced people when a case becomes complex.

Independent Contractors – Run Your Practice Without Doing Everything Alone

Our contractor model provides access to established business and operational support, with no additional fees for administration, intake, billing, ICT systems or operational support.

- Administration and billing support
- Secure ICT systems and clinical templates
- Compliance resources
- Marketing support
- Office hubs and telehealth platforms
- Clinical and professional development opportunities
- Connection with a broader multidisciplinary team

The model is designed to reduce unnecessary administration while respecting the independence of your practice.

Essential Requirements

- Current driver licence
- Reliable motor vehicle
- NDIS Worker Screening Check
- Working with Children Check, where applicable
- Professional registration relevant to your discipline, where applicable

More Than a Role – Find the Right Team

Choosing where you work is about more than salary, referrals or flexibility. The people around you matter too. At HandinHand, we're proud of the knowledge and experience within our team, but equally proud of the culture we're continuing to build, one where people support each other, share what they know, value different perspectives and genuinely want their colleagues to succeed.

Whether you're looking for the security and development opportunities of employment or the autonomy of independent contracting, we'd love to hear from practitioners who share our values.
