Female Support Worker Required- High Intensity, Person-Centred Support

One participant. One dedicated team. A role you could make your own.

"Not just a shift - a permanent place in someone's life."

Are you an experienced, highly skilled support worker looking for more than another rotating roster?

We're looking for the right person to join a small, dedicated team providing high intensity, person-centred support to a young woman with complex disabilities - and to stay.

This is a service for one: consistent hours, a consistent team, and the chance to build a genuine, long-term relationship built on trust, skill, and respect. If you're after stability, purpose, and a role that truly values your expertise, this could be the one you've been waiting for.

About the Role

You’ll provide high intensity, person-centred support to help our young lady achieve her goals, stay safe and well, and participate meaningfully in her community all while promoting her independence, dignity, and right to choice.

This is a genuine occupational requirement (female-only) role

Employment type: Permanent set weekly hours (additional shifts available)

Pay: In accordance with the SCHADS Award

Engagement: Employee position - not a sole trader / ABN arrangement

Team: Small, dedicated support team with opportunities to mentor and lead

Key Responsibilities

• Deliver high intensity, person-centred support tailored to individual goals and preferences
• Manage medication administration safely and accurately
• Respond to and manage epilepsy and seizure activity, including emergency protocols
• Implement positive behaviour support strategies and any restrictive practices in line with authorised plans

• Team leadership or house/service management experience

Why This Role Is Different

• Permanent, predictable hours - with room to grow
• A small, stable, dedicated team rather than a large rotating pool
• The opportunity to bring genuine continuity and consistency to someone's life
• Real scope to mentor and lead, if that's where your experience takes you
• A role that can be exactly as long-term as you want it to be
