Description

Company Description Welcome to Ability Action Australia! 👋 Welcome to Ability Action Australia, where we help NDIS participants (0–65 years) get more out of life, more independence, more confidence, more growth, more wins. Every day, we’re in the community helping people do life better… and honestly, it feels pretty epic. 🚀 Job Description 💼 The Role (AKA: The Hero Cape You’ll Be Wearing) *In or near Meton or Werribee where these current vacancies sit* As a Positive Behaviour Support Practitioner, you’ll be a supporter, a strategist, a behaviour detective and occasionally the person who teaches everyone to breathe again after a meltdown.

If you want to be a Psychologist one day? Amazing. But PBS is not the warm-up act. It’s its own headline show. 🎤💥 🙌 About You You’ll thrive with us if you: ✔ Have a degree in OT, Speech Pathology, Social Work or similar ✔ Live within a 10 min radius of either Melton or Werribee ✔ Have experience reading or creating, implementing or reviewing behaviour support plans ✔ Hold NDIS Behaviour Support Practitioner status (suitable, core, proficient, advanced or specialist) ✔ Do NOT hold a BSP registration? It's ok, we can help you get there! ✔ Have a genuine passion for disability support ✔ Have experience working with challenging behaviours ✔ Love working with humans AND love writing (Yes, there will be paperwork) 🎁 What’s In It For You?
