About us

Goldfields Individual and Family Support Association (GIFSA) is an organisation that supports people with disabilities, those who care for them, and their families. We are not-for-profit, non- government, and community based. We work in partnership with other community based organisations, State and Federal Governments to provide a range of individualised services.

GIFSA's aim is to be the local service provider of choice through excellence by "Celebrating Life's Journey". We do this by supporting individuals and their families to live a good life by providing person centred services that are tailored to their individual needs and aspirations.

What do you need to be a support worker?

GIFSA are looking for team members who are passionate about helping people and giving back to the community.

No experience is necessary, full training is provided! You will need to be able to pass a NDIS Worker Screening Check, possess a current First Aid certificate (or be booked in to complete one) and pass a drug and alcohol screen.

What we can offer

In addition to a competitive salary, GIFSA also provides access to salary packaging benefits. As a not-for-profit organisation this benefit allows you to contribute up to $15,900 of your pre-tax salary each year toward personal expenses such as mortgage or rent payments, bills and groceries.
