  • The ability to communicate effectively with your colleagues and the people you support (including effective use of technology/computer skills)
  • The empathy and willingness to support people with daily living tasks, personal cares, goals, dreams and aspirations
  • To be fit enough for a moderately active role
  • Availability to work on a rotating roster Monday through to Sunday
