Full Job Description

Work Under Our Registration Umbrella

Recovery Coaches, are you thinking about your next move?

You’ve built your practice on empathy, connection, and lived experience—and so have we.

At CoAbility, we partner with experienced Psychosocial Recovery Coaches who want to work in a way that’s values-led, recovery-focused, and supported by systems that actually work.

Our Philosophy

At CoAbility, we understand that recovery is deeply personal, non-linear, and grounded in connection. That’s why we’ve built a structure that gives Psychosocial Recovery Coaches the autonomy to do the work their way—with the right support behind them when it counts.
We’ve created a place where Recovery Coaches are trusted, backed, and genuinely part of something meaningful—for participants and for themselves.

People First Leadership

We’re not top-heavy or corporate. Our leadership team is lean, responsive, and always ready to jump in when needed. We focus on what matters: people, not processes—and creating the conditions for genuine, high-quality work.

Built with Recovery in Mind

CoAbility understands recovery coaching at its core. Our infrastructure supports you to walk alongside people with complex needs—without walking alone yourself.

What’s in it for you? Glad you asked!

These are just some of the reasons

people love being part of the CoAbility team.

100% Remote Work Model

We work flexibly and virtually—every day. Recovery-focused support doesn’t need an office.

No Arbitrary KPIs

But we do expect around 80% of your hours to be billable.

NDIS Compliance and Registration

We’ve got the registration and compliance sorted, so you don’t have to.

Fair and Competitive Rates

Contractor rates are inclusive of super and reflect the real value of psychosocial recovery work.

Proven Digital Systems

We’ve got reliable, easy-to-use systems—no spreadsheets required.

Stability and Longevity

Recovery Coaching may be relatively new to the NDIS, but we’re not. We’ve been doing this since 2017—and we’re here to stay.

When you work under our umbrella,

you’re part of something bigger—and that

means following the guidelines that keep

us compliant, consistent, and participant-focused.

Your responsibilities will include:

Caseload Management

Prioritise and manage your caseload efficiently to ensure timely, participant-focused service delivery.

Recovery-Focused Support

Provide trauma-informed, person-led support that aligns with recovery goals.

Plan Development & Monitoring

Co-create and maintain individualised recovery plans based on participant goals.

Collaboration & Advocacy

Work alongside participants, carers, and clinical supports to ensure coordinated care.

Community Connection

Support participants to connect with community, mainstream, and informal supports.

Coaching for Capacity

Build motivation, resilience, and decision-making skills through coaching techniques.

Record Keeping & Documentation

Accurately document all billable and non-billable activity in our CRM by the close of business on the day of service.

Incident & Crisis Management

Handle emerging issues professionally and report through our structured processes.

Quality and Compliance

Follow CoAbility’s policies and procedures, the NDIS Code of Conduct, and all relevant legislation and practice standards.

Administrative Accuracy

Ensure all data, documentation, and billing are accurate, complete, and submitted on time to enable smooth service delivery.

Team Participation

Be an active part of the team: attend supervision, participate in team meetings, and contribute to a positive, inclusive culture.

Professional Boundaries & Ethics

Maintain professional boundaries and act with integrity and respect in all CoAbility-related interactions, including with participants, colleagues, and stakeholders.

You’ll need to meet a set of baseline requirements. These are in place to protect everyone—ensuring you’re covered, we remain compliant, and participants receive safe, high-quality support under the NDIS.

“I was drawn to CoAbility because of their commitment to quality, and they’ve absolutely delivered on that promise. There’s a real sense of community, even though we work remotely, and I always feel informed and involved.”

MarcusCoach - Langwarrin

“I was initially nervous about transitioning my caseload over, but CoAbility made the process incredibly smooth. The team was organised, responsive, and respectful of my existing relationships with my participants. I felt supported every step of the way, and my participants have noticed the difference too — they’re still getting the same level of support from me, but now they aren’t waiting on me to do all the behind-the-scenes stuff on my own. There’s a whole team helping things run smoothly.”

AnnaRecovery Coach - Footscray

“Working with CoAbility has been such a refreshing experience. The team is genuinely supportive, communication is always clear, and I feel respected and trusted in my role. It’s a fantastic environment for anyone who just wants to get the work done without all the BS.”
