Be Part of Something Different

At Blossom Support Services, we do things differently.

We support young people and adults with disability to live meaningful, adventurous lives – through tailored community access, innovative short-term accommodation (STA), and in-home supports.

Our focus is on positive behaviour support, communication access, and individualised care for those with complex needs. We're building a team of experienced support workers who know how to think ahead, adapt with compassion, and follow through.

Now, we're offering two pathways to join us:

Casual employee roles with strong leadership support, penalty rates and superannuation.

Experienced independent subcontractors, with autonomy, flexibility, and strong hourly rates.

We Are Looking For Support Workers With:

Experience supporting behaviours of concern

Confidence implementing Positive Behaviour Support Plans (PBSPs)

Practical skills using visual supports, AAC, and sensory regulation tools

Understanding of trauma-informed and strengths-based approaches

Ability to communicate effectively with participants, families, and allied health

Strong documentation and time management skills

Your Role May Include:

Supporting participants in the community, in their homes, and on overnight STA/respite

Implementing participant-specific plans (PBS, seizure, dysphagia, mealtime, medication)

Providing personal care, managing routines, and fostering independence

Completing accurate support notes and shift documentation

Collaborating with a supportive team and leadership network (including in-house nurse)

Essential Requirements:

All roles (employee or subcontractor):

NDIS Worker Screening Check

DHS Working with Children Check

National Police Check

First Aid & CPR

Manual Handling Certificate

NDIS Worker Orientation Module

“Through Their Eyes” (RAN) and Safe Meal Training

What We Offer:

Employee Pathway:

SCHADS Level 2 from $43.23/hr + 12% super, with paid training, regular rostered hours, and eligibility for permanent conversion.

Subcontractor Pathway:

$50.54–$54.69/hr, flexible hours, participant-match-up model, shift penalties for weekends. Ideal for experienced sole traders.

High-quality training in PBS, high-intensity supports, and communication strategies

Real team connection - you won’t be left alone

A chance to grow with us into team leader, PBS assistant or specialist support worker roles

A values-based culture:

Adventure

Connection

Respect

Creativity

Inclusive Hiring

We welcome support workers from all backgrounds, including those with lived experience of disability, carers, and workers who identify as Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander, CALD, or LGBTQIA+.
