Work Type: Full-time or Part-time

Location: Australia Wide

Due to the high demand for Kameleon services, we are recruiting Behaviour Support Practitioners, who have experience working with participants across various settings. Kameleon Practitioners work with participants from as young as 1 years old, to people in their late 60’s. These are very flexible and autonomous roles, and are available either part-time or full-time.

 About Kameleon Group:

At Kameleon Group, we deliver Specialist Behaviour Support services. We utilise the science of Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) through a person-centred and values-based lens. Our practice is strongly informed by Positive Behaviour Support, Trauma-informed care, Collaborative Problem Solving Model, EDSM, Floor time and other positive practices.

Kameleon is an NDIS-registered provider, and our practitioners work with all ages, all diagnoses, and topographies.  Some Practitioners at Kameleon, specialise in a specific client age group or diagnosis, whilst others enjoy a broader caseload, across age groups or diagnosis.

We are an organisation led by Board Certified Behaviour Analysts (BCBAs), including a Managing Partner, our Clinical Directors and also members of our Clinical Leadership team, supervisors and senior practitioners.  If you are working toward your CBA,BCBA or BCaBA qualification, we can provide the supervision, coaching and supports you need to not only meet the CBA/BACB requirements, but to reach competency in your role, to really make a positive difference.

About the role:

This is a hybrid model, where you will work from home (no commute!) and will go out to visit people in their homes, schools, workplaces, programs, and in the community.

Being a behaviour specialist involves working in collaboration with the participant and their support networks to achieve meaningful behavioural change. We do this by understanding the relationship between a person’s environment (social and physical) and their behaviour, and then influencing that person’s environment so that it sets them up for success. Another important part of the role is supporting skill development, to ensure people have effective ways to get their needs met.

 About you:

• You are a Behaviour Support Practitioner preferably with 2+ years’ experience (Ideally CBA/CBU-U/Professional/BCBA)
• You are registered with the NDIS as a Behaviour Support Practitioner (Core level or above)
• You value integrity, collaboration, and transparency
• You are passionate about this work – the science and the people
• You are friendly, empathetic, and a clear communicator
• You have relevant undergraduate qualifications (Psychology, Social Work, Counselling, Occupational Therapy, Speech Pathology, ABA, Early Childhood, Teaching, Mental Health, Special Education etc.)
• Ideally, you have postgraduate qualifications or are working toward them
• You have experience working with children and/or people with disability, and you are familiar with the NDIS
• You have experience undertaking functional assessments and developing PBSPs
• You have experience in coaching families and support workers, ideally in implementing PBSPs that you have written
• You are Covid-19 vaccinated + boosted, as per NDIS requirements
• You have a current driver license, and an insured roadworthy vehicle
• NDIS worker screening checks, Working With Children clearance, and any other checks required in your state or territory.

What we offer our Kameleon team:

Great remuneration and benefits

• Competitive pay – scaled based upon experience and qualifications
• Regular reviews
• Investment in external professional development opportunities which align with your professional development goals
• Laptop, phone, business expense card
• Generous Bonus Scheme
