Forensic Disability Support Worker

Casual positions available

Do you want to be part of an organisation that specialises in Forensic Disability and provides support to participants with complex disabilities to assist them to live their very best lives?

Are you ready to take on a rewarding role where every step you take creates meaningful change?

Step As One Disability Services is seeking enthusiastic, committed, and compassionate Forensic Disability Support Workers in and around the Liverpool and Campbelltown suburbs of Sydney. If you have experience supporting individuals with complex disabilities and behavioural needs—including forensic support needs and involvement with the criminal justice system—we'd love to hear from you.

We are currently recruiting for Support Workers with forensic experience to support a young woman who resides in Supported Independent Living and receives 1:1 and 2:1 assistance with daily living. Support Workers will need to be confident in trauma informed care and managing self-harming behaviour using positive behaviour support strategies and the implementation of a behaviour support plan to inform and guide their engagement.

This is not a typical disability support role. You will receive specialist training in self-harming behaviours and borderline personality disorder. As well as ongoing clinical support to work alongside participants with complex support needs, forensic backgrounds,



mental health presentations and behaviours of concern using evidence based Positive Behaviour Support approaches.

Candidates must have a minimum of 2-3 years' experience supporting participants with complex disabilities and behavioural needs.

If you're ready to make a meaningful difference and grow your career with a supportive, purpose-driven organisation, we want to hear from you.

Apply now and step with us toward a more inclusive world—together.
