Learning Support jobs in Sunshine Coast QLD

About Us

We are a small, NDIS-registered provider delivering highly individualised support to one participant. Our model of care is intentionally designed around consistency, strong relationships and thoughtful, person-centred practice.

Because we support one participant with a dedicated team, we are able to focus deeply on quality. Our team works closely together, alongside family and allied health professionals, to provide structured support that promotes independence, communication and meaningful participation in everyday life.

Our workplace culture values professionalism, teamwork and mutual respect. Every team member plays an important role and is supported to grow their skills and confidence in the role.

Training and professional development are a key part of how we operate. We invest in additional company-funded training and mentoring so our team can continue developing their knowledge in areas such as communication strategies, behaviour support, regulation techniques and capacity building.

About the Role

We are currently seeking a Disability Support Worker to join our established team of eight.
