Independent Living Manager- Wyong
Lead with Purpose. Inspire Change. Create Impact.
Are you ready to take the next step in your leadership journey and truly make a difference?
At Brighter Access, we don’t just deliver services—we open doors, create opportunities, and empower people living with disability to live life on their terms. Now, we’re looking for a passionate Independent Living Manager to lead, mentor, and inspire our teams while shaping the future of Supported Independent Living (SIL).
This is more than a job—it’s your chance to lead with heart, influence meaningful change, and build a stronger, more inclusive community.
About the Role
As our Independent Living Manager, you’ll play a pivotal role in driving both strategy and day-to-day operations across our SIL programs.
You’ll lead from the front—coaching and supporting your team, championing person-centred practices, and ensuring every participant receives high-quality, empowering support.
You won’t just manage from a distance—you’ll walk alongside your team, building capability, confidence, and connection every step of the way.
You’ll also be part of our leadership team, helping shape the future direction of our services and strengthening our impact across the region.

* Lead meaningful projects that enhance outcomes and independence
About You
You’re a hands-on, values-led leader who thrives on making a difference. You bring both heart and expertise to your work, and you’re not afraid to roll up your sleeves and support your team on the ground.
You’ll bring:
* Experience in disability or community services (SIL and/or community access preferred)
* Proven leadership and team management experience
* Strong knowledge of NDIS frameworks, compliance, and best practice
* A passion for empowering individuals and building inclusive environments
