Job description

Overview

Looking for a rewarding role where your care makes a real impact?

At Kanda, we’re building a team in Mareeba to support people with disabilities to live their best lives. Whether you’re experienced in care or just starting out, if you’re compassionate and reliable, we’d love to hear from you.

What you’ll be doing

• Supporting people with daily living – meals, personal care, household tasks
• Helping clients attend appointments and connect with the community
• Encouraging independence, wellbeing and social inclusion
• Working as part of a supportive and collaborative team

What we offer

• Competitive hourly rates
• Consistent rosters you can plan your life around
• Paid training and ongoing career development
• Wellness initiatives and 24/7 access to the Sonder wellbeing app
• A welcoming team culture where you’ll be valued and supported

What we’re looking for

• A current driver’s licence and access to a vehicle
• NDIS Worker Screening Check & Working with Children Check (or willing to obtain)
• Availability across a range of shifts (including sleepovers)
• Experience in disability, aged care, or mental health is great – but not essential. If you’re caring and keen to learn, we’ll support you to succeed.

Kanda is committed to creating and maintaining a child safe organisation.

We are committed to an inclusive environment where people feel comfortable to be themselves. We want our people to feel that all voices are heard, all cultures are respected and that a variety of perspectives are not only welcome – they are essential to our success.
