About the program
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is a new way of providing support for Australians with disability, their families and carers. The NDIS will provide Australians under the age of 65 with a permanent and significant disability with the reasonable and necessary supports they need. The Scheme takes a lifetime approach, investing in people with disability early to improve their outcomes later in life. The Scheme aims to support people with disability to build skills and capability so they can participate in the community and employment.
About the role
Based in Wurrumiyanga, Tiwi Islands, the NDIS Daily Living Coordinator ensures a person-centred approach across all aspects of service delivery and relationship management for CCNT NDIS participants in the Tiwi and Tennant Creek regions. The role is also responsible for overseeing the day-to-day operations of support services provided by CCNT NDIS Support Workers to ensure program deliverables are met.

- Working knowledge of the NDIS and relevant qualifications in Community Services is desirable.
- Strong interpersonal and communication skills including the ability to relate to participants with a disability.
