The Support Space provides personalised disability support to Participants across the Perth metropolitan region, from Mandurah through to Midland and surrounding areas. As a Support Worker, you may be matched with Participants in a variety of locations based on your availability, experience, and travel preferences. We are looking for team members who are flexible and willing to travel up to 30 minutes within our service area.

The Support Space is more than a service provider, we are a disability hub offering consulting, tutoring, support work, and nursing services.

We pride ourselves on our thoughtful matchmaking approach, ensuring Participants are paired with the right Support Workers to meet their individual needs. You will be joining a team that genuinely cares about both Participants and employees.
