Support Worker

The right support can help someone move beyond just getting through the day, and start living with real confidence, independence and choice. Across Kanda's Gold Coast SDA and SIL services, you'll provide that support in people's homes and communities, building relationships that help people work towards the goals that matter most to them.

What you'll be doing

• Help people build confidence, independence and everyday living skills
• Be there for personal care, household tasks, appointments and daily routines
• Encourage community connection and support people to work towards their own goals
• Move between shared support in SDA settings and more individualised support in SIL homes
• Respond to complex or changing needs with empathy, consistency and professionalism

You're the right person if...

• You've supported people with disability in SDA, SIL or a similar community care setting
• You're confident supporting complex behaviours or higher support needs
• You're calm, flexible and steady when situations shift
• You work well both independently and as part of a team
• You communicate clearly, keep good records, and understand professional boundaries

Why Kanda
Kanda backs new support workers with paid induction and real shadow shifts, so you feel confident from day one. Pay runs from $35–46 per hour plus super and penalties, with flexible casual and part-time options across the Gold Coast. Working across both SDA and SIL means you'll broaden your experience while a supportive on-call team has your back. Most importantly, you'll be part of an organisation where your work has genuine purpose and the people you support stay at the centre of everything.
