Job description

About Multilink
Multilink provides community services to diverse communities. Multilink focuses on migrant, culturally and linguistically diverse communities.

Our key services include settlement of new people into the community, comprehensive language support, help for aged and disability sectors, support for children, young people and families, and social engagement programs focusing on healthy lifestyles.

Our vision for the future combines practical programs with our values and mission.

About the opportunity

At MultiLink, we believe that ageing is a journey best lived with dignity, connection, and care. We’re looking for Support Workers who share our values, people who see beyond the tasks and bring warmth, patience, and a true sense of purpose to the lives of older Australians.

This is more than a job. It’s the chance to make a difference every single day, while being part of a supportive, professional team that values you just as much as the people you care for.

What makes this role different?

• Guaranteed stability: 24 hours per week, Monday to Friday (no evenings, no weekends).
• Time to care properly: We want our team to feel proud of the quality of support they provide, not rushed.
• High impact: You’ll work with consumers who have higher care needs, where your skills and compassion matter most.
• Support for you: We’ll provide you with training, a team who has your back, and an organisation that truly values its people.

Our people are central to everything we do. We offer our staff members:

• More money in your pocket: Access salary packaging up to $15,900 per year, plus $2,550 for meals and entertainment
• Extra time for you: 1 additional paid day off each year (our Gratuitous Day), plus purchased leave options
• Keep growing: Professional development opportunities to support your learning and career path
• Wellbeing support: Free, confidential Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
• We’ve got your back: Travel allowance of $0.99 per km, and top-up of your First Aid and CPR certificates paid for you

Ready to make a difference?

If you’re passionate about supporting older people to live with dignity, connection and joy, we’d love to hear from you. Please submit your resume and a short cover letter telling us why you’re the right fit for this role.

We’re looking to fill this role quickly and may begin contacting suitable candidates before the closing date, so don’t wait to apply!

Multilink acknowledges and pays respect to the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we work.

What we’re looking for:

• Experience supporting older people with higher needs (aged care, disability or community care background)
• A genuine heart for people and the patience to walk alongside them in their journey
• Certificate III in Individual Support (Aged Care/Disability) or equivalent
• Current Police Check, Blue Card and NDIS Worker Screening
