Support Worker

at  Endeavour Foundation

• Permanent Part-Time positions available in Burleigh, Southport and Tugun QLD
• Buddy shifts and ongoing training provided to help you settle into your new role
• Encouraged ongoing professional development and diverse career opportunities
• Wide range of guaranteed shifts from morning, afternoon, sleepovers and weekends

WHAT WILL YOU BRING TO THE ROLE?

• You are a true people person who is passionate, patient, empathetic and resilient
• You are dedicated to empowering people with disabilities to live their best lives
• Flexibility to work various shifts including days, evening, early morning, weekends and sleepovers
• The capacity to meet the physical requirements as some manual handling tasks may be involved
• Ability to work autonomously and as part of a team
• Commitment to privacy and confidentiality
• Good computer skills and experience using Word, Excel and Outlook
• A Certificate III in Individual Support (Disability) would be great but it’s not a “must”
• Experience with complex behaviours would also be highly regarded

In this role you will provide support within our Home Service; assisting people with disabilities to live as independently as possible, whether they have complex needs or just need some additional support at home. No two days will be the same - you may hear that phrase a lot but here at Endeavour Foundation, it couldn’t be more true! Other key duties will include:

• Helping people to achieve their NDIS goals by developing important daily skills such as housekeeping, personal care, social skills and budgeting
• Assisting with aspects of personal care where required to meet the individual needs of the people we support
• Supporting with meal planning, cooking, light cleaning and facilitating community connection by socialising and going on outings
• Providing support during daily activities such as going for a walk, going to the movies or accompanying to an appointment
• Helping the people we support to maintain a connection to their family, friends, and service
