Become a Mentor with Australian Mentoring Services (AMS) We’re looking for people who want to make a real difference — not just fill a shift.

At Australian Mentoring Services (AMS), we do things a little differently.

You might know this role as a Support Worker, but at AMS we call our people Mentors — because we believe the role is about so much more than providing support.

It’s about empowering people, building confidence, developing skills, creating opportunities and helping someone live a life worth living.

We’re currently looking for Permanent Part-Time Mentors to join our team across Liverpool, Fairfield and Roselands, supporting participants with psychosocial disability and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

What does being a Mentor mean? Being a Mentor is about getting to know the person, understanding what matters to them and supporting them to work towards their own goals.

Some days might involve helping someone develop their cooking, budgeting or household skills. Other days could be getting out into the community, supporting someone to reconnect with family or culture, building social connections, attending appointments or simply being there when someone needs a little encouragement.

You’re not there to do everything for someone — you’re there to help them discover what they can do.

And sometimes, the biggest wins are the little ones.

We’re not looking for bums on seats. We’re looking for people who genuinely want to make a difference in someone’s life.

You’ll need to be someone who:

Builds genuine, respectful relationships

Is patient, empathetic and non-judgemental

Can see the person, not just the disability

Celebrates the small wins





Is comfortable working with people who may have complex needs or behaviours

Can encourage independence while providing the right level of support

Is reliable, resilient and able to think on your feet

Wants to learn and grow alongside the people you support

Previous experience in disability, mental health, psychosocial support, youth work, community services or a similar workplace is highly regarded.

But just as important to us is who you are and why you want to do this work.

What you’ll be doing As a Mentor, you will support participants in their homes and in the community to:

Develop daily living and independent living skills

Build confidence and work towards personal goals

Develop social connections and participate in the community

Access education, employment and other opportunities

Develop cooking, cleaning, meal planning and budgeting skills

Build positive routines and healthy relationships

Work towards greater independence and self-determination

Implement Individual Support Plans and Behaviour Support Plans

Provide a safe, respectful and empowering environment

You’ll work both independently and as part of a team, always respecting the rights, choices and goals of the people we support.

Where are the opportunities? We are currently recruiting for opportunities across:





Liverpool | Fairfield | Roselands | Southwest Sydney | Shire

Our participants have different needs, personalities, goals and interests — so no two days are exactly the same.

Come and meet us We believe recruitment should be a two-way conversation.

Our interviews are held face-to-face at our AMS Head Office in Campbelltown, where you’ll have the opportunity to meet our team, learn more about AMS and get a real feel for what we do.

We want you to ask questions too — because finding the right fit works both ways.

Why AMS? At AMS, we support people who may have been overlooked or told that certain things aren't possible.

We believe in possibility, connection and empowerment.

We want our Mentors to come to work knowing that what they do matters — because the relationships you build and the support you provide can genuinely change someone's day, their confidence and, over time, their life.

You’ll also have access to:

Employee Assistance Program (EAP)

A supportive and values-led team

Ongoing learning and development

The opportunity to build meaningful relationships with the people you support

A workplace where your contribution is valued

To join the AMS team, you’ll need:

Valid NSW Driver’s Licence P2 or Full Licence

NDIS Worker Check

NSW Working with Children Check

Ability to work within a rotating roster, including some evenings, weekends and overnight shifts

A genuine commitment to supporting people to achieve their goals

Ready to be more than a Support Worker? If you’re looking for a role where you can build relationships, create op
