Permanent hours available

Great training and support

Newcastle, Maitland, Lake Macquarie (surrounding suburbs)

Hi there! We’re Forward. For over 60 years we have supported people with spinal cord injuries to live their best life.

Are you someone who:

  • Can commit to a regular, permanent schedule,
  • Can support people in their home,
  • Can build professional relationships based on trust,
  • Can support people with their day-to-day needs,
  • Has experience supporting people with disability or older people?

Yes! We definitely need to talk.

If you don’t have experience, or you’re looking for something more casual, we have work that might suit you. Let us know what you’re looking for, and we’ll see if we can help.

It’s important to us that you feel like you’re a valued member of our team. We give:

  • Great training so you can feel confident and capable. This includes training with our clinical team and buddy shifts. We don’t want to throw you alone in the deep end!
  • A great team to join so you feel supported and connected. Our Newcastle/ Hunter team is a pretty amazing group!

We have shifts available across all days of the week:

  • 6.00am to 8.30am,
  • 9.00am to 12.00pm,
  • 5.00pm to 7.00pm.

We’re flexible with your other commitments, whether that’s another job in disability or aged care, study at university or TAFE, or care commitments.

There are some other things you’ll need, like an NDIS Worker Screening Check, a First Aid Certificate, and a Drivers License. You won’t need to drive your own car to transport clients.

Apply today and we look forward to meeting you!

Forward Ability Support is an Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) Employer and people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds are encouraged to apply.
