Support Workers (Complex Care Focus)
At Your Choice Matters, we believe that great support starts with a great team. We're a family-owned disability service that not only empowers our participants to achieve their goals, but also values and invests in the people who make that possible — our staff.
We pride ourselves on creating a genuine team culture where you'll feel supported, trained, and appreciated. Our staff enjoy regular catch-ups, ongoing development opportunities, and a workplace that feels more like family than just a job. We also put great effort into rostering with balance in mind — making sure your shifts are built around your needs so you can enjoy both work and family life.
When you join us, you're not just another support worker, you're part of a team that looks after each other while making a real difference in people's lives.
The Role
As a Mentor/Support Worker, you'll provide one-on-one support to help participants achieve their NDIS goals, build independence, and live fulfilling lives. While community access is part of the role, we are especially seeking staff who are confident and experienced in providing complex care — or are genuinely willing to learn and develop these skills with our training and support.
Complex care includes personal care such as showering, dressing, hygiene, mobility support, and medication management. You'll also assist with daily living needs such as meal preparation, shopping, transport, social connection, and household tasks. Most importantly, you'll be a consistent, reliable support who empowers clients while bringing compassion and positivity to their day.
At YCM, we don't just match you with clients — we make sure you feel trained, supported, and comfortable, so you can thrive in your role.
What We're Looking For
We want people who:
Have experience in complex care (personal care, mobility support, hygiene, medication) OR are motivated and committed to learning these skills with our support.
Bring compassion, patience, and respect to every interaction.
Value teamwork and enjoy being part of a family-like culture.
Can communicate confidently with clients, families, and support networks.
Are reliable, professional, and genuinely passionate about making a difference.
You'll also need:
Minimum Certificate III (or higher) in Disability/Individual Support/Community Services (or be studying/willing to obtain).
Current First Aid & CPR.
WWCC, NDIS Worker Screening/Disability Check, and Police Clearance.
Current Australian Driver's Licence and reliable car.
The Perks of Joining YCM
A culture that feels like family – regular team catch-ups, open communication, and genuine care for each other.
Ongoing training & support – including free access to a paid training platform with up to 100 NDIS-related modules, so you can up skill and feel confident in what you do.
Consistent supervision & mentoring – your voice will always be heard, and you'll be supported in your professional growth and development.
Work-life balance that's real – we put great effort into rostering to make sure your shifts suit your life, giving you balance with family, study, and personal commitments.
Real impact – the chance to support participants in meaningful ways and celebrate their wins.
Flexibility – casual shifts across Adelaide's east, west, north, and south suburbs (with a strong need for staff in the south and west).
