Jobbeschreibung

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander NDIS Support Worker – Sydney (Identified Position)

Tegrity Services is an Aboriginal-owned and led NDIS provider based in Revesby, delivering culturally safe support work and support coordination across Sydney. We started Tegrity because too many mob have had to explain themselves to a provider that doesn't understand culture, or have gone without support that feels safe. Our team understands culture, kinship, family and community because they live it.

Since 2021 we have supported more than 100 participants across South-West Sydney, the Inner West, the City and the Eastern Suburbs.

About the role

We are looking for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander support workers to join our team. You will work with a small, consistent group of participants, mostly Aboriginal, and you will see the same faces each week. Rosters are set a fortnight ahead so you know what is coming.

A typical week includes:

• Supporting participants to get out into community, including our Wednesday Rec Group
• Helping with daily living, appointments, shopping and household tasks
• Building life skills and confidence at the participant's pace
• Supporting participants to stay connected to culture, family and Country
• Writing clear shift notes in our app at the end of each shift

What we are looking for

• You identify as Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander
• Genuine care for people and a strong connection to community
• Reliability. Our participants count on seeing the same workers every week
• A current NDIS Worker Screening Check and Working with Children Check, or willingness to obtain them
• First Aid and CPR, or willingness to obtain them
• A driver's licence and reliable vehicle (preferred)
• Experience in disability, aged care, youth work or community services is welcome but not essential. We train on the job.

What we offer

• Casual employment under the SCHADS Award, with penalty rates for evenings, weekends and public holidays
• Flexible hours that fit around family, study and community commitments
• A small Aboriginal-led team where you do not have to explain yourself
• Rosters planned a fortnight ahead
• Support from an experienced team, including Aboriginal Elders and coordinators
• A clear pathway into support coordination for those who want it
