Job Description

Be bold. Be innovative. Make a real impact.

At Allara Support Services, we’re not just another provider — we’re redefining what exceptional disability support looks like. Founded with a passion to challenge the status quo, we’re on a mission to deliver the highest quality Supported Independent Living (SIL) services across Australia.

We believe in a world where everyone can live their dreams and be true to themselves — no matter the challenges. And that starts with people like you.

About the Role

We’re looking for compassionate, proactive Support Workers to join our team at our Bathurst and Lithgow disability accommodation sites. We work with participants with varying needs from physical support, intellectual support, social support, mental health and challenging behaviours. Located in the vibrant heart of Bathurst, these newly constructed villas set a new standard for exceptional living for NDIS participants seeking high physical support (HPS) or robust SDA accommodation. Crafted by architects, these villas offer unmatched accessibility, independence, and privacy. This offers a selection of 3 one-bedroom and 2 two-bedroom self-contained villas meticulously designed to meet the stringent design requirements for robust and high physical support under the NDIS. Spacious, pet friendly, and open plan apartments designed for independence, comfort, and connection. Lithgow’s only apartment style SDA offers flexible SIL support, condition specific pathways, and the convenience of a central regional location — perfect for participants, families, and carers seeking long term security and lifestyle. This offers 10 specially designed SDA units.
This innovative support model allows people with High Physical support needs to reach their ultimate independence. The service offers 24/7 onsite support. There is an on-site carer’s unit integrated with assistive technology and nurse call buttons, so our clients have access to support whenever they need. You’ll play a key role in empowering the people we support to be part of the community, live independently, and live their best life.
