Program Assistant

A life of participation, opportunity, and choice.

We believe at the core of who we are and what’s important to us, is our people. Generous, caring, compassionate, and resilient, they embody what we do every day. A team that never stops learning or striving to make tomorrow even better than today. With us, you’ll be supported by understanding leaders who show genuine care for your journey in our organisation, in our community and beyond.

Our inter-disciplinary team of Program Assistants, Group Leaders and Allied Health Professionals work in a collaborative, supporting environment to provide a holistic approach focused on enhancing the wellbeing and growth of autistic children in an early childhood setting.

As a Program Assistant, you will support both our team and the children, from contributing to ensure a safe, clean environment, interacting with children to maximise their learning, supporting social engagement and helping them to achieve their individual goals.

We are looking for someone with at least 6 months of experience working with children and either has completed or is working towards their Certificate III in Early Childhood Care or Education Support (or equivalent/higher).

With access to Medibank Private Health Insurance and Fitness Passport discounts for you and your immediate family – as well the support for your career growth through opportunities, and the experience you gain through helping to empower autistic children – there are so many reasons to join us!

“Above all else, it’s passion and purpose that guides our people.”

Autism Queensland strives to create environments where everyone has equal access to connect their greatest passions with their fullest potential, celebrating all people and their right to participate and belong. We ask that you please let us know if there are any adjustments you may need to ensure you are supported during our recruitment process.
