  Ember values our employees. They are our secret sauce and we are committed to doing the best we can do for our kaimahi. We believe our people’s abilities, knowledge and experience are irreplaceable. To support this, we offer a higher hourly rate, above the current statutory requirement, for employees who are covered by the Pay Equity Settlement Agreement.

Community Support Workers are the key ingredient for successful client outcomes, and we provide ample on-going tools and encouragement to help our kaimahi develop, grow and flourish in the role.
In this role, you will apply your skills and experience to work closely with those who are referred to us either through primary or secondary services. You will work alongside people with a mental health diagnosis to assist them with living, engaging, and thriving in the community of their choice.
Effective communication and a person-centred approach are vital for this role as you will be working alongside clinical teams and other community agencies to ensure a wraparound service is provided for the people we support.
