Recovery Coach Opportunity
Are you passionate about supporting people with psychosocial disabilities to reclaim control of their lives and thrive in their community?
This role offers the chance to play a specialised and integral part in helping NDIS participants with primary psychosocial disabilities understand their supports, build capacity, and connect meaningfully with their community and life goals. Your focus will be on recovery-oriented practice, coaching, and support coordination - ensuring participants gain greater independence, resilience and control.
This is a casual role offering flexibility, with the potential to transition into part-time or full-time employment for the right candidate.

* Coordinate, negotiate and liaise with providers, allied-health, community services, the NDIA, and other stakeholders to ensure participants access appropriate supports and services.
* Provide capacity-building coaching rather than purely directive support; empowering participants to self-manage, make informed choices and build informal supports.
* Maintain accurate case notes, reports and documentation in line with NDIS standards and the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission's requirements.
* Uphold values protecting the rights, dignity, choice and safety of participants.

* A strong commitment to recovery-oriented practice and working alongside people with psychosocial disability.
* Excellent communication, active listening and coaching skills.
* Strong problem-solving, negotiation and collaboration skills.
* Highly developed time-management and administrative skills.

* Understanding of the NDIS pricing arrangements and psychosocial recovery coaching support item.
Essential Requirements
