Working with Us
McLaren Vale Enterprises has a proud reputation of supporting people with disability to have a good life. We’ve been engaged with the local community for over 5 years and together with our other locations, have grown to become one of the largest provider of disability employment in the regions we operate.
We believe in attracting people whose main priority is about making a positive contribution to enhance the skills, engagement and independence of people with disability. With a flat management structure and accessible Board of Directors, we can make decisions as a business without the usual layers of bureaucracy, which enable us to react quicker and maintain our flexibility. We empower our people to be self-managers and use their initiative to create better solutions and outcomes.
As a not-for-profit organisation, we offer attractive salary packaging options which make a real difference to take-home pay. Our salaries are market-competitive and we have a good understanding of job flexibility and work-life balance.
Our team is close and united and our staff turnover is low by industry standards. People who come to work with us, generally stay with us. The result is a team built on mutual respect and a shared passion.
If this sounds like the sort of organisation you’d like to be a part of, we’d like to hear from you.
Our largest opportunity for employment is Support Worker. It could be in the home, the community, group activities coordination or in the packaging and timber production areas.
We advertise our vacant positions on the job search website, SEEK. For the most up-to-date information, please visit the SEEK website.
