Work with us
We’re looking for grounded, caring support workers in Cairns and Townsville. People who see the person first, show up steady, and want to do support differently.
What it’s like here
-
We work calmly and at the person’s pace. No rushing, no box-ticking, just steady, genuine support.
-
You’ll learn the ACC way of working: ground first, listen, notice, break it down, and look back together.
-
Casual roles paid under the SCHADS Award, with directors who’ve done this work themselves.
What you’ll need
-
A Certificate III, Certificate IV or Diploma in a relevant field, or be actively working towards one.
-
A current NDIS Worker Screening Check and Blue Card.
-
Current first aid and CPR certificates.
-
A current driver’s licence and a registered, insured vehicle you can use for work.
-
A cultural awareness certificate and a safe food handling certificate.
