Job Description
Join the Adelaide team at Ability Action Australia — a vibrant, multidisciplinary crew of 25 plus Allied Health professionals making a real difference in the community every day. Our team brings together Occupational Therapists, Speech Pathologists, and Positive Behaviour Support Practitioners united by one shared purpose: delivering high-quality, meaningful support to NDIS participants across South Australia.
We're not your average allied health team. We combine genuine clinical excellence with a positive workplace culture.
What Makes Us Different
* Flexible hybrid working arrangements — structured to suit your lifestyle, not just the organisation's.
* Supportive, multidisciplinary culture — collaborate with Occupational Therapists, Speech Pathologists, and PBS Practitioners who genuinely want each other to succeed.
* Career development pathways — whether you're early in your career or looking to step into a senior or leadership role, we invest in your growth.
* Community-based practice — meaningful, varied caseloads that keep your work interesting and impactful.
* Pet-friendly office — because great workplaces welcome the whole family (yes, including the four-legged members).
* Team social culture — daily coffees, lunches, and celebrations that make the office somewhere you actually want to be.
In this role, you will provide tailored, person‐centred supports to NDIS participants across the Adelaide region, helping them build capacity, achieve their goals, and enhance their quality of life.
Responsibilities will include:
* Deliver assessment and person‐centred planning for NDIS participants and their families/carers
* Develop, implement and review evidence‐based behaviour support plans within complex support environments
* Set meaningful goals and implement practical strategies aligned with the Positive Behaviour Support framework, with a strong focus on reducing and eliminating restrictive practices
* Ensure plans reflect each participant's strengths, interests, and aspirations
* Build the capability of families, carers, and support networks to confidently support participants
* Collaborate within a multidisciplinary team and provide mentoring to junior Behaviour Support Practitioners
Qualifications
* Degree-qualified in an allied health discipline (desirable)
* Strong report writing and documentation skills
* Excellent time management and organisational abilities, with experience managing a varied caseload
* Proactive mindset, with a passion for continuous improvement and innovation
* Genuine commitment to working within the disability sector and improving participant outcomes
