Behaviour Support Practitioner – Make a Real Impact!

Are you a behaviour support ninja? Do you thrive on problem-solving and making a real difference in people’s lives?
If you're passionate about working with individuals with disabilities, have experience with complex behavioural clients, and love a good challenge, we’ve got the perfect gig for you!
We’re looking for an NDIS approved (proficient or above) Behaviour Support Practitioner to join our dynamic team in Brisbane. Think of it as a mix of problem-solving, advocacy, and a bit of superhero work (minus the cape… unless you really want to wear one).

As a Behaviour Support Practitioner with SCSS, you’ll deliver evidence-based clinical guidance and play a key role in transforming lives. We work with clients of all ages, all diagnoses, and all behaviours to create supportive, growth-focused environments while reducing restrictive practices.

  • No two days are the same – you’ll be tackling unique challenges, thinking outside the box, and celebrating small (and big) wins.
  • Work alongside a top-tier team of practitioners, mentors, and senior clinicians who’ll support your growth.
  • Have the freedom to be innovative – your ideas matter, and we’re here for game-changing solutions.

What You’ll Be Doing (AKA Your Superpowers)

  • Developing & implementing Positive Behaviour Support Plans (both interim and comprehensive), sometimes including restrictive practices.
  • Conducting Functional Behaviour Assessments (FBAs) and crafting tailored, person-centred strategies that enhance clients’ quality of life.
  • Collaborating with stakeholders & allied health professionals in a multidisciplinary approach (because teamwork makes the dream work!).
  • Coaching & supporting families and teams, empowering them to implement behaviour strategies like pros.

Why You’ll Love This Role

  • Above-average remuneration – because your expertise deserves to be valued.
  • Career growth & skills development – we offer access to courses, mentorship, and hands-on learning to keep you at the top of your game.
  • Work-life balance is a priority – we roster your hours to make sure you actually have a life outside of work.
  • Tech & transport perks – company mobile phone, laptop, and access to fleet vehicles for work appointments.
  • 24/7 well-being support – through Sonder Complete Care & Corporate Health Care Partnerships, because we care about YOU too.

What You Need to Join the Team

  • NDIS Quality and Safeguard Commission suitability – registered as a proficient practitioner or above.
  • Current driver’s licence – because you’ll need to get places!
  • Working with Children’s Check & NDIS Worker Screening Check (or be willing to obtain one).
  • Excellent communication & interpersonal skills – collaboration is key!
  • Critical thinking & problem-solving skills – because every challenge has a solution.
  • A proactive, motivated mindset – we love people who take initiative.

Qualifications & Experience

  • NDIS registration as a proficient practitioner or above.
  • A degree in allied health, social science, or behavioural science (or currently studying towards one).
  • 12+ months experience providing positive behaviour support with challenging behaviours.
  • Understanding of Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) principles, methodologies, NDIS, and DSA 2006 legislations.
