Company Description Perfectly Imperfect is an Australia-wide service that is proudly neuro-affirming and LGBTQIA+ inclusive, supporting individuals and families with diverse needs and identities. The team is made up of neurodivergent professionals who bring lived experience and more than 10 years of practice in counselling, advocacy, NDIS navigation, and parent support. The organisation focuses on creating secure, affirming spaces where people can access practical assistance and emotional support without judgment. Perfectly Imperfect is committed to collaborative, person-centred care that respects autonomy, diversity, and individual goals. Role Description The Behaviour Support Practitioner will provide person-centred, evidence-informed behaviour support to clients and their support networks. Day-to-day responsibilities include conducting behaviour assessments, developing and implementing Behaviour Support Plans, and engaging in regular reviews to ensure supports remain effective and aligned with client goals. The role involves collaborating with clients, families, carers, and support coordinators, including those within the NDIS framework, to deliver practical strategies, training, and coaching in everyday environments. The practitioner will also document progress, maintain high-quality records, and contribute to advocacy and capacity-building activities. This is a hybrid role based in the Greater Sydney Area,
with a mix of in-person sessions and work-from-home flexibility. Qualifications
• Relevant tertiary qualification in psychology, social work, occupational therapy, counselling, education, or another allied health or human services field.
• Demonstrated experience in behaviour support, including assessment, development, and implementation of Behaviour Support Plans within disability or mental health contexts.
• Strong understanding of neurodiversity, trauma-informed practice, and neuro-affirming and LGBTQIA+ inclusive approaches.
• Knowledge of the NDIS framework, including behaviour support requirements, reporting, and collaboration with support coordinators and other service providers.
• Excellent communication, documentation, and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build trust and rapport with clients, families, and multidisciplinary teams.
• Capacity to work independently, manage a caseload, and operate effectively in a hybrid environment (Greater Sydney Area with partial work from home).
• Current working rights in Australia, relevant clearances (e.g., Working With Children Check, National Police Check), and driver’s license if required for community visits.
• Lived experience of neurodivergence and/or LGBTQIA+ identity or extensive experience working with these communities is highly regarded.
• Minecraft proficiency is a bonus
