We're looking for an experienced Behaviour Support Practitioner to join either our Brisbane/SEQ team. Relocation expenses will be paid for, if you reside elsewhere.
Reporting to our National Service Delivery Manager, you'll provide clinical and operational leadership to a small team of Behaviour Support Practitioners across [greater SEQ and surrounding regions], while holding a reduced but complex caseload of your own — around [40%-50%] of your week.
You will be the link between clinical practice and operational delivery in your region.
Holding a key role in supporting practitioner development, maintaining clinical excellence and ensuring high-quality participant outcomes while fostering a positive, collaborative and values-driven culture.
The Opportunity

- Your team
- Weekly one-on-one supervision with each practitioner in your region
- Weekly group supervision with peers at matched experience levels
- Recruitment, onboarding and retention
- Contributing to staff development, performance reviews and professional growth planning

- Your own practice
- Deliver high-quality, evidence-based behaviour support services to clients, while providing operational and clinical leadership to a team of Behaviour Support Practitioners
- The support you'll get
Clinical support isn't an add-on here — and that applies to leaders too.
- Fortnightly one-on-one with the National Service Delivery Manager
- Weekly clinical and leadership supervision for your own clinical and leadership development
- Full administrative support - we take off as much admin as we can so you can focus on what you do best!
- Direct input into national decisions on service delivery, quality and growth
You won't be building this alone.

- A team small enough that what you build sticks
- What you will need
- Relevant tertiary qualifications in Psychology, Social Work, Occupational Therapy, Speech Pathology, Behavioural Science or a related allied health / human services discipline
- NDIS Behaviour Support Practitioner registration at Proficient level or above (Advanced or Specialist highly regarded)
