* Help develop their life skills, confidence, and independence
* Work through tough times together, providing emotional and practical support
* Advocate for their needs and wellbeing as part of a wider care team
* Collaborate with Case Managers and community services to support long-term outcomes
Why You'll Love Working with this organisation

Your Training Journey
You'll begin with a comprehensive 3-week induction program (classroom, online and on-the-job training), preparing you with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to succeed.
Note: Offers start on a casual basis during induction, with permanent roles offered once you complete the induction program.
This isn't just a job. It's a purpose. A chance to show up when it matters most.
