Who we are
n
Positive Futures Queensland is a small practice delivering high-quality, holistic support to people in the NDIS. We genuinely care about our team — if our people are happy and safe at work, the quality of what we deliver follows. We work in a hybrid way, mixing office,



home and mobile services, so you'll have real flexibility in how you structure your week.

Leading a team. Provide individual and group supervision to a team of behaviour support practitioners, alongside our other Senior Clinicians.

Assessing and reviewing. Complete adaptive behaviour and functional assessments (and
diagnostic/cognitive
assessments if within your scope), and evaluate strategies with families and stakeholders through regular reviews.

Collaborating widely. Liaise with clients, allied health, carers, families, and government departments — and provide counselling or psychosocial skill development where it sits within your qualifications.
