At Manaaki Care, we're a registered NDIS provider supporting participants across Newcastle, Lake Macquarie and Maitland. As a boutique organisation, we're committed to delivering high-quality, person-centred supports that empower people to live as independently as possible.

We're currently seeking experienced Supported Independent Living (SIL) Support Workers to join our growing team. If you're passionate about supporting people with complex needs, thrive in a team environment, and are committed to making a genuine difference in participants' lives, we'd love to hear from you.

• A genuine passion for empowering people to achieve their goals and maintain their independence.

• The ability to work both independently and as part of a supportive team.

Flexibility is Essential

• Work across both SIL and Community Access supports as required.

• Work a rotating roster, including at least one weekend per fortnight.

• Complete a minimum of two sleepover shifts per week.
