Behaviour Support Practitioner

Full-time or part-time | Hybrid Work From Home – Springwood or Caboolture Offices when needed | Greater Brisbane, Ipswich & South Brisbane

We are looking for a Behaviour Support Practitioner to join our team, with a degree in Psychology, Social Work or equivalent. We want someone who is compassionate and enthused about delivering high-quality person-centered care to their clients.

We are also looking to recruit a Senior Behaviour Support Practitioner to guide and mentor a small team of practitioners while carrying a focused, specialised caseload of your own. If you have experience in delivering behaviour support, and love the clinical work but also feel called to lift up the people around you, then this role is for you.

Both Behaviour Support Practitioner & Senior Behaviour Support Practitioner positions suit provisional psychologists and allied health professionals with a background in behaviour support. We're proud to offer internal board-approved secondary supervision for the 4+2 and 5+1 programs.

The positions will suit someone looking for part-time or full-time employment.

Who we are

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.

What you'll be doing

Write Comprehensive and Interim Behaviour Support Plans that meet the NDIS Commission's requirements around Restrictive Practices.

- Delivering person-centred support. Carry a varied, complex caseload across the community and our offices, supported by a multidisciplinary team.

- Sharing your expertise. Train and advise stakeholder teams on best practice, Restrictive Practices, and the relevant QLD legislation and national guidelines.

- 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.

What we're looking for

- To be considered for the Senior Behaviour Support Practitioner role, ideally you will have at least 2 years' experience as a Behaviour Support Practitioner or in an equivalent role, and preferably already registered as Advanced or Specialist with the NDIS Commission, or explicit evidence you're working towards it. In addition to experience supervising or coaching other practitioners (preferred).

- Experience with complex clients, including people with Intellectual Disabilities, Autism Spectrum Disorder and non-verbal clients.

- Excellent report writing and clinical writing skills.

- Warm, fair and effective interpersonal and leadership skills.
