Maxlife Care is a leading provider of premium disability and aged care services, led by a team of dedicated doctors. We are driven by our shared purpose: to deliver the highest standard of social and clinical care, empowering our clients to live life to the Max.
Our experienced team supports clients with complex medical, social and aspirational needs, and we are growing rapidly. Our values, being and belonging, quality, integrity, innovation, empathy and diversity, sit at the heart of every decision we make.
About the Opportunity:
Due to recent growth, we are seeking warm, energetic and relationship-focused female Support Workers to join our team supporting two young women with primary psychosocial disabilities (ASD Level 3, Moderate Intellectual Disability and ADHD) in their home and community.
Our vision for this home is to build a positive, stable and engaging environment where both young women feel supported to build independence, participate in their community and enjoy meaningful social connections. The right team will play a huge role in shaping this house's success through the strength of the relationships they build.
Please note: This role is open to female applicants only, in line with our clients' right to choice and control over who provides their personal care. This is a genuine occupational requirement under Section 30 of the Sex Discrimination Act 1984 (Cth), and reflects our commitment to their gender, comfort, privacy and dignity.
About the Role
- Providing in-home support with daily tasks such as meal preparation, personal care and medication administration.

- A team-player mindset with clear, professional communication with co-workers and stakeholders.
- Certificate III in Disability (or similar) and current CPR and First Aid certificates.
- Valid NDIS Worker Screening Check.
