About Us

Y Whittlesea is a not-for-profit that happens to be part of the oldest youth organisation in the world and oldest social enterprise where all profits go back into our communities. Our Inclusion Services provide a wide range of programs and supports for children and adults with a disability, families and the local community. We offer support coordination services in Melbourne, Horsham and surrounding areas. Our amazing team encourage opportunities for connection, goal achievement, laughter, and friendship with person-centred engaging activities. At the Y, we are passionate about building a close-knit community.

What’s the opportunity?

As a Support Coordinator, you’ll play a vital role in helping individuals with disabilities navigate and access the services and support they need to live independently and achieve their goals. You’ll focus on addressing barriers and reducing complexities for our participants in a supportive environment, using a strengths-based approach. Some of the key duties include:

• Service Coordination: Assist clients in implementing their NDIS plans and connect them with appropriate services, providers, and resources.
• Goal setting: Work collaboratively with clients to identify their personal goals and create action plans that support their progress.
• Monitoring and reviewing: regularly assess client progress, adjust plans as needed, and ensure services are meeting their needs.
• Problem-solving: Address any issues or barriers that may arise, ensuring clients have the support they need to thrive.

This is a rewarding role where you’ll have the opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of individuals with disabilities, helping them lead more independent and fulfilling lives.

Location: Our Horsham office is located in the Centre for Participation. This role is open to Horsham and surround (Ararat, Stawell, etc.), with office attendance negotiable depending on location.
