This isn't a desk-bound management position. You'll have the autonomy to lead services, coach emerging leaders, strengthen stakeholder relationships, influence workforce planning, and contribute to the continued growth of a respected NDIS provider.


You'll be trusted to create environments where participants can thrive, while ensuring staff are supported, empowered and equipped to provide outstanding care and support. The role combines operational leadership, stakeholder engagement, workforce development and continuous improvement.

  • Oversee service quality, risk management and compliance with NDIS Practice Standards and legislative requirements
  • Manage participant admissions, transitions and accommodation vacancy pathways to maximise service opportunities and outcomes
  • Collaborate with senior leadership to drive continuous improvement, innovation and operational performance across accommodation services

About You:

You are an experienced people leader who understands the balance between operational excellence and genuine person-centred practice.

  • Strong understanding of the NDIS environment and quality standards
  • A track record of building engaged and capable teams
  • Confidence managing complex stakeholder relationships
  • Excellent communication and problem-solving skills
  • The ability to drive accountability while maintaining a supportive leadership style

This isn't simply a compliance-focused management position. You'll have the opportunity to:

  • Influence service direction and quality outcomes
  • Lead and develop teams during a period of growth
  • Work closely with senior leadership
  • Drive meaningful change for participants and their families
  • Join an organisation committed to inclusion, respect and person-centred support
