Employment support for people accessing NDIS
If you’re an NDIS participant, we can help you find and keep a job. Through Disability Employment Services (DES), we offer intensive and tailored support to build the skills you need for open employment. DES is free and won’t impact the support you receive through your current NDIS plan.
Transition from supported employment
If you’re looking to transition from supported employment into open employment, we can help. Our employment specialists will work with you to plan your pathway to employment. This will include a job plan to identify the roles that interest you as well as the skills and qualifications you need.
We’ll be with you every step of the way – as you get job ready, look and apply for jobs, and prepare for your interview and first day. We’ll even stay by your side for as long as you need in your new role.
