The need-to-know…

Rise is hiring a new, part-time Administrator – Behaviour Support, to work 60.8 hours a fortnight within Rise’s Behaviour Support Team.

This role has true flexibility & plenty of options to improve your work-life-balance! You can either work four, 7.6-hour days a week, or, five 6.08-hour days a week, it’s up to you! Start & finish times can be negotiated to suit your lifestyle, but all hours must be worked between 8.00am & 6.00pm across Monday to Friday (no weekend work). You will work on a hybrid basis, with some office work at various Rise locations as required & some work-from-home.

As Rise’s newest Administrator, you will provide high level administrative support across all areas of the Positive Behaviour Program & some areas of the People with Disability (PwD) Program. The role is responsible for ensuring compliance requirements are met under the NDIS quality and safeguards commission for restrictive practices and positive behaviour support, undertaken through the coordination of internal & external quality assurance panel meetings, reporting requirements, portal administration & implementation across services. The role collates, tracks, and reports on restrictive practice and behaviour support information across NDIS services and provides best practice guidance to staff.

After a comprehensive training period of 2-3 months, you will occasionally be required to work independently and make decisions. This role is ideal for a self-motivated, autonomous individual who is confident in problem-solving, takes initiative, and seeks to improve efficiency.

• Monitor the NDIS quality and safeguard commission portal for new behaviour support plans.
• Prepare and compile high-quality, accurate reports on restrictive practices, with assistance as needed.
• Ensure all service agreements and schedules of support are current and properly signed.

• Certificate IV in Business Administration or higher, or equivalent experience in a similar role.
• Ability to manage own time & prioritise workload independently.
• Well-developed communication & interpersonal skills.
