Opportunities available at Victoria People Solutions for Trainee Support Workers in the Ballarat Area!

Are you looking for a career change?

Are you passionate about supporting people with a disability and making a difference?

...this role might be the right fit for you!

We are excited to open our Support Worker vacancies to candidates who DO NOT have experience (or qualifications) in the disability sector. We will provide you with on-the-job training and direct experience working with our participants and Support Worker Team.

We are seeking candidates to apply who are willing to work across Ballarat and surrounding areas. Candidates must also be available to work active and non-active night shifts to be considered for the role.

Here at VPS, we put more weight towards individual values and attitude instead of extensive experience because our philosophy is that attitude and values aligned with VPS vision cannot be taught, everything else can be learned over time!

As part of a team focused on delivering great experiences, you will support and assist our program participants to do what they love and learn new exciting skills. You will also help build diverse and inclusive communities that deliver on the amazing experiences our participants expect from VPS.

Whether you support a participant in their home; out and about in the community; or you might even be working with other allied-health professionals - every day you will have the chance to make a big difference — for your participants, your team, and yourself.

You will make the most of your own passions to help participants bring their personal goals and projects to life. No one day is the same for a VPS Worker; whether it is supporting a participant to prepare for a job interview, attending live gigs, navigating the world of dating or creating household routines, our supports are meaningful and encourages growth for our participants, ourselves and our community.

At VPS, we lead through inspiration. Be part of a team that builds relationships within the local community, creating an inclusive and connected atmosphere.
