Are you looking to make a real difference in your community? We are currently looking for empathetic and passionate Support Workers to work across our Community Services in Christchurch. Whether you are looking for flexibility around other commitments or would prefer regular rostered shifts, we have a variety of permanent (full-time and part-time) and casual options to offer.

What does a Support Worker do?
As part of a wider team, you will assist our clients to live as independently as possible, within their homes and community.

This is an opportunity to join New Zealand's largest community healthcare provider with the potential to gain experience in a variety of disciplines including aged care, disability, mental health and rehabilitation.
