Community Support Worker - Intellectual Disability

About Pact

At Pact, we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to live a meaningful, connected life.

We are a leading provider of community, vocational, and residential support across New Zealand. We support people with intellectual disabilities, mental health and addiction challenges, and young people, to reach their goals and build independence.

About the Role

If you’re someone who enjoys a challenge and has experience (professional or lived) supporting people with complex needs, we’d love to hear from you.

We currently have a range of full-time and part-time roles available, including day, evening, weekend, and awake night shifts. This is a great opportunity to make a difference, grow your skills, and be part of something meaningful.

In this role, you will:

• Support people with disabilities as they set and achieve personal goals
• Encourage participation in daily life and community activities
• Provide practical assistance with routines, well-being, and skill-building
• Model positive behaviours and foster confidence, resilience, and hope
• Keep clear, accurate documentation to support progress
• And most importantly, ensure the people you work with have fun and feel valued!

What you’ll bring

Our Dunedin team is looking for someone with:

• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
• A positive attitude and calm approach in challenging situations
• A genuine passion for helping others grow and succeed
• A full driver’s licence and basic computer skills
• A relevant qualification (e.g. Level 4 Mental Health) — or willingness to work toward one once you’re on board
• Must have the right to work in New Zealand

What will Pact offer you?

At Pact, you’ll be part of a supportive, down-to-earth team who care equally about our staff as we do the people we support. We offer you:

• In house training to ensure you have the skills and knowledge to best support our clients
• $26.80 - $31.47 per hour based on qualification
• Celebrate your milestones with Long Service benefits
• Encouragement and support to achieve the NZQA Level 4 Qualification
• Free Employee Assistance if you require additional, confidential support
• Watch people grow and blossom whilst celebrating every achievement
