Team Leader / Developmental Team Leader Pathway | Kangaroo Island

Livit Disability Support is seeking applications for a Team Leader opportunity based on Kangaroo Island. 

We are open to hearing from applicants who already have relevant leadership experience, as well as local candidates who may not yet be ready for the full Team Leader role but have the values, reliability, communication skills and commitment to develop through a supported pathway. 

This is a local leadership opportunity focused on supporting a team of Support Workers to deliver safe, person-centred services for people living with disability. The role includes supporting staff, coordinating services, building positive team culture and maintaining strong relationships with clients and families.  

For developmental candidates, Livit may offer a structured pathway with coaching, mentoring, leadership development activities and readiness checkpoints over a period of up to 12 months. Progression into the full Team Leader role is not automatic and will only occur where readiness is confirmed.  

You may be a good fit if you: 

• have leadership experience or leadership potential; 

• care about high-quality, person-centred disability support; 

• communicate respectfully and effectively; 

• are reliable, organised and willing to learn; 

• can support a positive and capable team culture; and 

• currently live on Kangaroo Island or have confirmed arrangements to be locally based. 

Certificate IV in Leadership and Management or 3+ years' leadership and management experience is highly regarded; however, developmental applicants are encouraged to apply.  

Experienced Team Leader applicants will be considered for a full-time Team Leader appointment. Developmental pathway applicants will be offered a structured part-time leadership development arrangement with the opportunity to progress into the Team Leader role following successful completion of the pathway. 

Salary and Classification 

• Experienced Team Leader appointments will be remunerated at the applicable SCHADS Award Level 3 Team Leader classification. 

• Developmental Team Leader Pathway appointments will commence at SCHADS Award Level 2 Pay Point 4, with progression to the Team Leader classification upon successful completion of the pathway and confirmation of readiness.
