At the end of your shift…
You might drive home thinking about the little things that happened today.
Maybe someone tried something independently for the first time. Maybe they got through an appointment they'd been anxious about. Maybe they simply made their own lunch — something small to anyone else, but a big deal to them.
Not every win looks big from the outside. But when you know the person you're supporting, you notice the wins that matter to them.
That's what makes Disability Support different. You're not ticking off a list — you're helping someone build choice, confidence and independence on their own terms.
You might not remember everything you did today. But you'll remember the moments that mattered.
About the role
We're recruiting a team of Disability Support Workers to provide 1:1 support to a young man.
This is a varied support role involving community access, daily activities, building independence and supporting the person to engage with his interests and routines.
The person we support is non-verbal and can experience sensory overload and behaviours of concern.
You'll work closely with the person to build trust, understand his communication and support him in a way that promotes choice, dignity and independence.
