JOIN THE CARING AUSTRALIA TEAM
Leaders Of The Future
Caring Australia is a warm and diverse community of people spread over Australia. We are known for our unique approach, innovative delivery and outstanding results in the provision of support for individuals with disability. At Caring Australia, we want our community and lifestyle activities to set us apart from the rest, and be industry leaders when it comes to variety, skill development and levels of client engagement. Let’s make an inclusive and better world together!
Experienced, Fit and Energetic
Caring Australia is a young organisation, being only 6 years old! Our support workers are very experienced too, with the majority being under the age of 35. This means they have no problem keeping up with our curious participants and are happy to run, jump, explore, hop on a bike or play footy. This also means our participants can enjoy overnight camps as our support workers are more open to travelling for longer periods of time. Our participants can also more easily relate to someone closer in age to them.
All Paid, Not Volunteers
Often when people show interest in becoming a Caring Australia support worker they are surprised to know that it is a paid opportunity. Support work is usually known for being a volunteer or casual role but at Caring Australia we have over 100 full time support workers across the country. At Caring Australia all of our support workers are paid whether they are in a full time position or a casual position. Our support workers work for us because they believe in our mission and want to help us make happiness come first.
Qualified and Consistently Trained
At Caring Australia we want to ensure that our support workers are prepared for the job. During the onboarding process, we make sure our support workers have all mandatory check and first aid training prior to their first booking. We also have them trained in fun activities, for example, giving them a chance to learn how to ride a bike. We are constantly educating our support workers through meetings on how to interact with participants and de-escalate situations.
Why Work At Caring Australia?
At Caring Australia, people are at the heart of everything we do. We are here to provide exceptional services to our clients and to our expanding team.
At Caring Australia, the opportunities for human connection are extraordinary. Expect to build strong friendships with the people you work alongside and support. We are looking for skilled and experienced people who share our values and are passionate about working with people with disability to support them to achieve their goals in life and work.
