Who are we?

NZCare and Geneva Community Living have come together to form NZCommunity Living, an organisation dedicated to supporting disabled people in New Zealand. Our Disability Support Services reflect our belief that all people deserve to live fully, have equal opportunities, and achieve their ambitions.

What does a Support Worker do?

Support Workers are part of a team who work shifts or specific rosters providing 24/7 cover with responsibilities including aiding with personal care, community outings and integration, and other aspects of daily living - enabling our clients to be as independent as possible.

You will be somebody who really thrives off helping others and who is committed to upholding high standards of care. Empathy, respect, and cultural awareness is important in this role as the people we support come from diverse backgrounds with varying needs and interests.

We are seeking a full time support worker for our residential homes in Cambridge.

- Prior experience supporting others with aspects of daily living, preferably those living with intellectual or physical disabilities
- Full driver's licence and confidence to safely transport passengers in our disability vans (training provided)
