Celebrate strengths. Build confidence. Make a difference.

The Bridge Incorporated is a community‑based, not‑for‑profit organisation supporting people with disability and those from other disadvantaged backgrounds across Melbourne’s south‑east and northern suburbs.

We’re passionate about creating inclusive workplaces that celebrate different ways of thinking, learning and working — and providing meaningful employment opportunities where people can truly thrive.

We’re looking for a casual Training and Support Officer to join our welcoming and fast‑paced Dandenong warehouse. This is a flexible opportunity, ideal for someone who enjoys hands‑on work and wants to make a real difference.

In this role, you’ll work alongside Supported Employees across multiple production and process lines, providing practical training, encouragement and day‑to‑day support.

Shifts are typically between 4–6/7 hours (within business hours) Monday to Thursday.

  • Providing friendly, practical supervision and support on the warehouse floor
  • Delivering on‑the‑job training tailored to different learning styles and communication needs
  • Getting to know each Supported Employee’s strengths and supporting their growth
  • Encouraging safe work practices and maintaining quality outcomes
  • Actively participating in warehouse tasks (including repetitive work, lifting and standing)
  • Being a consistent, positive and encouraging presence throughout each shift

Please note this role requires at least a Certificate IV in Disability (or a higher/equivalent qualification).

Join an environment where you'll feel valued, supported, and inspired to make a difference with a passionate, supportive team making a real difference every day.

  • Access up to $18,500 in Not-For-Profit Salary Packaging
  • Support your work/life balance with flexible working arrangements
  • Connect to a range of services with Sonder EAP including counselling, nutritional, medical and financial professionals
  • Maintain your health and wellbeing with discounts to your private health insurance
  • Start your new role with a comprehensive induction and training
  • Be part of a team that cares about your ongoing professional development
  • Opportunities to build your skills and gain new experiences across the organisation

We’re committed to creating a workplace where people feel safe, respected and valued for who they are. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds, identities and lived experiences. If you need any adjustments or support during the recruitment process, just let us know — we’re happy to help.
