DCC Industry Group is hiring an experienced Therapeutic Crisis Intervention (TCI) Trainer and Assessor to lead and improve crisis prevention and intervention training across residential and community programs. Reporting to the Learning & Development Coordinator, the role oversees TCI training delivery, assessment, and certification in line with Cornell’s TCI model, DCC’s Model of Care, child safety requirements, and statutory obligations. The position works closely with practice teams to support workforce development, training planning, skill audits, and incident review. As a proactive and solutions-focused leader, the trainer will help embed therapeutic, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive practice, strengthening staff capability, reducing physical interventions, and promoting safe, confident, child-centred responses to crises.

As a Speech Therapist at DCC, you’ll play a vital role in delivering evidence-based, participant-centred therapy across a diverse and dynamic clientele. Whether working with children, adolescents, or adults within clinics, schools, homes, or via telehealth, you’ll support NDIS participants and community members to unlock their communication potential.

This is more than just a job, it’s a career opportunity in an organisation that invests in your growth. You’ll receive structured supervision, ongoing mentoring, and a generous professional development budget to help you become the clinician you aspire to be.

As an Occupational Therapist at DCC, you will be providing your expertise and services with a varied caseload that includes referrals for both children and adults. Supervision, mentorship and professional development are provided to ensure that team members feel supported in all areas of the role. You’ll thrive in a collaborative, multidisciplinary environment alongside Psychologists, Speech Therapists, and Therapy Assistants, all driven to deliver holistic, outcomes-focused care. This role will be based in Toowoomba, and responsibilities will include:

• Assisting parents/families to develop understanding and knowledge of the NDIS to support their ability to make informed decisions
• Conducting standardised and non-standardised assessments
• Planning, implementing and evaluating individual therapy programs
• Completing documentation and writing functional reports in line with professional standards
• Working collaboratively with clients, families, support staff, and other allied health services
• Assessing home and school environments, prescribing aids, equipment and modifications as required.
• Identifying and providing appropriate information and education to clients, families, support staff, and other allied health services

In this role, you will be working as part of a dynamic care team, providing both youth support and disability support services to children and young people in DCC care. Our young people may have a range of additional needs, including ADHD, Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), language disorders, and reactive attachment disorder.

You will be responsible for offering compassionate, trauma-informed care and supporting each young person’s individual development and well-being. This includes assisting with personal care needs such as meal preparation, maintaining hygiene standards, medication administration and accurate medication data recording, skill development and socialisation, and providing transport to school, appointments, and community-based activities.

As part of supporting children and young people with complex communication needs, you must be willing to use a variety of communication tools, including audio devices, pictorial aids, and PODD (Pragmatic Organisation Dynamic Display) communication books. Full training will be provided by qualified therapists to ensure that every member of the care team is equipped to deliver consistent, high-quality support tailored to the unique needs of each young person.

This role offers a rewarding opportunity to positively impact the lives of children and young people by empowering them to achieve their goals in a supportive, nurturing environment.

You will participate in and support young people’s Cultural Support Plan and support the House Manager with the day-to-day operations of the home by assisting with the house planner, grocery list, cleaning checklists, identifying risks and concerns, and up lining these to the House Manager. You will play an active part in maintaining a therapeutic, trauma-aware environment that meets the individual needs of children and young people with complex behavioural and emotional backgrounds.
