A Career Creating Brighter Futures

If you’re passionate about supporting people with disability to live their best life, a career with Endeavour Foundation could be for you.

Whether someone wants to live independently, get a job they love or engage with the community, Endeavour Foundation supports people every step of the way.

They are equally dedicated to empowering their team members to live their best lives, too.

Local Support Worker, Kerry Martin, said that she loves the flexibility, the opportunities and the support but also told us about her favourite part of the work she does for Endeavour Foundation.

“The reward of building rapport with people and seeing them develop over time is the best part of the job,” she said.

“A lot of people may think that they might not suit this type of work, but if you have a passion for working with people and are open to learning – this may be the career for you.

“In my role as a Support Worker, it’s my job to support people to live their life of choice, to empower them in their everyday.”

Like Kerry, Administration Assistant Brandon Cheng has worked in a diverse range of roles with Endeavour Foundation, becoming a role model for others on the path from supported to open employment.

“I love working in the disability sector because it inspires me,” Brandon said.

“It’s just a community for them to connect together because we are all about family.

“I recommend Endeavour Foundation to people with disability, and to people who don’t have disability.”
