Experienced Disability Support Worker | Complex Behaviour Support | Zillmere

Casual | Immediate start available

SCHADS Award Level 2, pay points 2.1 to 2.3, plus superannuation and applicable penalties and allowances.

EverythingU is looking for an experienced disability support worker to join a small, consistent team supporting an adult woman in her home in Zillmere. We’re looking for someone calm, dependable and confident who can build trust and support her to participate in her daily routine.

Experience is essential. Only applicants who can demonstrate hands-on experience in all three areas below will be considered:

- Supporting people with behaviours of concern, including recognising early signs of distress and using proactive strategies to prevent escalation.

- Providing hands-on personal care to female participants, including bathing, dressing, grooming and toileting, while respecting privacy, dignity and choice.

- Supporting people who communicate without speech, including recognising and responding to gestures, facial expressions, body language and other communication cues.

We provide participant-specific training, orientation and buddy shifts to help you learn her routines, communication cues and behaviour support strategies. Previous experience in all three areas is essential.

Roster and training commitments

We run a five-line roster to provide consistent support. You must be available for both day shifts and inactive overnight shifts (sleepovers) and able to commit to regular rostered shifts.





You must also be able to attend a paid two-hour training session on one Thursday each month.

An immediate start is available once screening and orientation are complete.

What the role involves

- Supporting a predictable daily routine, including personal care, meals, household activities and outings.

- Learning how the participant communicates her needs and preferences. Use familiar language, offer transparent choices and allow time for her to respond.

- Doing everyday activities with her wherever possible, and adapting your approach if she needs a break or becomes distressed.

- Following her Positive Behaviour Support Plan (PBSP), recognising early signs of distress and responding calmly and consistently.

- Completing clear progress notes, incident reports and handovers so the next worker knows what happened and what helped.

What you’ll need

- Practical experience following a PBSP and an understanding of restrictive practice safeguards.

- Certificate III in Individual Support, Disability or a related field, or relevant demonstrated experience.

- Current NDIS Worker Screening Clearance, First Aid and CPR.

- A valid driver’s licence and reliable transport.

- Clear written communication and a calm, dependable approach.

Cameras are used in the home. Details will be discussed at interview.

How to apply

Please send your résumé and a short cover letter. Tell us about your experience in each of the three essential areas, your regular availability for day shifts and inactive overnight shifts, whether you can attend the monthly Thursday training, and when you can start.
