We’re looking for passionate, empathetic Support Workers with a positive, can-do attitude to join our vibrant Cerebral Palsy Alliance (CPA) Lifestyles team on a permanent part-time basis. If you’re motivated by making a real difference and helping people live full, self-directed lives, this role is for you.
About the Role
As a Support Worker, you’ll support people with disability to build independence, actively drive their own goals and decisions, and actively participate in their community. Backed by an experienced, supportive team who truly understand the role, you’ll work 1:1 with clients in the community

We also pride ourselves on providing exceptional training and development — it’s one of the things our staff value most.
