We have got the job for you. About Us We're a rapidly scaling, not-for-profit disability support provider that believes in positively transforming the lives of people with disability. In doing so, we aim to create the highest quality agency we can, ideally reshaping the sector as a whole. This means we often do things differently. Since we began in 2015, we've made it our mission to examine every part of what a support provider does – from how we structure our teams, to how we recruit and roster, to how we ensure the highest quality support, to how technology acts as an enabler for all that we do. Our clients tell us they notice this difference, and for many it's had a profound impact on their lives. Supporting more than 250 clients across metropolitan and regional Victoria and only continuing to grow, we want the people who join us to also believe disability support should enable a life of independence and dignity. The role This role provides an opportunity to work with an organisation who leads the way in delivering new models for the disability sector and is shaping the agenda for disability care.

The role involves designing and providing practical training for individual client support teams in complex care based on a client's plan. Working with the Client Service, Quality and Learning and Development teams, the Nurse Educator advises on training content for complex support programs, and delivers in person and online training to client support teams when necessary.
