BEST Disability Support – Slacks Creek QLD

Your Main Quest

As a Support Worker, known as a Mentor, you will be responsible for the safety, fun, and learning of young people with disabilities.

Your day-to-day tasks will include, but are not limited to:

- Assisting Members as they learn new skills in one of our many programs.
- Ensuring Member safety both on campus and when out in the community.
- Providing emotional and social support to Members.
- Investing in the success of our Members and supporting them to achieve their goals.

Your Skills

Prior experience and/or qualifications in the community services sector is desirable but not essential.

The absolute must-haves :

- Ability to work in a fast-paced environment: No seriously, we’re constantly on the move whether that be on campus or at parks, shops, and more!
- Be a jack-of-all-trades:



Diverse backgrounds and skills are key to ensuring our Members have exposure to a wide range of experiences, so be sure to let us know of any of your weird, wacky, and wonderful areas of interest.
- A compassionate personality: You must be a patient, kind, and caring person as we will not accept anything less
- Be and have fun: We want all of our staff and Members to love coming to BEST, so being someone who doesn’t take themselves too seriously is essential (singing and dancing badly is encouraged)
- Belief in the BEST mission: We want our Members to actually learn the skills they need to achieve their goals, and eventually not need us anymore!
