Step 1
Choose your own team of support workers through Careseekers.

“is local”

“Speaks Auslan”
Speaks Russian”
Careseekers is a diverse support worker community, operating across Australia. You can search for workers; post your job and invite potential support workers to apply for your job or message them directly.
Step 2
Award support worker/s your job and create an online service agreement
Once you have found a support worker/s to engage you can fill in the online service agreement and award them your job. The service agreement allows you to state important information about the role including the rates, types of support, emergency contacts. You can also download the service agreement as needed. The service agreement on Careseekers is based on the NDIS service agreement template.
Step 3
Approve and pay invoices through the easy to use payment dashboard
When a support worker submits their invoice, you will be sent an email notification letting you know that you have an invoice to approve and pay (using your NDIS funds). Invoices remain on your dashboard giving you a record of all the support worker payments you have made.
Step 4
Create a payment schedule that suits you!
You have the control to make the payments when it suits you and your support workers, you can request that workers submit the invoices daily, weekly or fortnightly.
