Availability to work after school hours and weekends is essential. Full driver's license and owning your own vehicle is essential. Whilst experience in supporting people would be an advantage, it is not a necessity for those with the right attitude. We are seeking somebody who has the initiative to push people for their goals, is energetic, outgoing, and can think outside the box. You need to be respectful of others thinking, and their way of living life that may be different to your own.

Empathy, respect, and cultural awareness is important in this role as the people we support come from diverse backgrounds with varying needs and interests.
