I've been with GIFSA for six years, and the flexibility has meant I haven't had to choose between being there for my young family and doing work I genuinely love. It's allowed me to grow as both a parent and a professional.
More Than a Job: a Calling, Close to Home
Working at GIFSA means being part of something bigger, right here in your own community. Every day you'll make a real difference to someone in your own town, alongside a team that supports each other as much as we support our participants.
Why Work with Us
What Our Team Says About Working with Us
I came to the disability sector with no experience, but GIFSA gave me the training, tools and support I needed to learn, grow and build my confidence as a support worker.
There's nothing quite like seeing someone achieve something they once thought was out of reach. Being part of that journey is what makes this work so rewarding.
I've never wanted a job that felt repetitive. Working alongside people in the community means every shift is different, and you never stop learning, growing and sharing in people's achievements.
In previous roles, shifts could change at short notice, which often made planning life outside of work difficult. At GIFSA, I've found the roster to be reliable, and any changes are communicated clearly, giving me confidence and peace of mind.
I wasn't sure how many hours I wanted to take on when I first started, but I never felt pressured. My coordinator worked with me, supported me to build my confidence, and helped me find the right balance. That support made all the difference.
