• Participate in regular clinical supervision, mentoring and MDT collaboration

Why Join This Team?

• Flexibility and autonomy to structure your working week
• Mobile caseload built around your local area wherever possible
• Regular clinical and Team Lead supervision
• Shadowing, 1:1 and small-group support as you settle into the team
• Access to experienced and senior clinicians across multiple disciplines
• Monthly face-to-face team connection, plus plenty of online collaboration
• A team that values sharing knowledge, celebrating client wins and supporting each other
• Achievable KPIs designed to support sustainable workloads and work-life balance
• Ongoing professional development and career opportunities within a national allied health organisation

What You’ll Bring

• Current NDIS Commission suitability at Core level or above
• Experience delivering Positive Behaviour Support within the NDIS
• NDIS Worker Screening Check and Working With Children Check, or willingness to obtain
• Driver’s licence and reliable vehicle – this is a mobile community role
