Program Assistant – Co-Hive
Location: Alexandria, Sydney
Employment: Full-time or part-time (minimum 6-month commitment)
Salary: Based on experience
About Co-Hive
Co-Hive is a purpose-driven and fast-growing organisation based in Alexandria, Sydney, dedicated to supporting young adults with disability aged 17–35 as they transition from school to adult life. In just 18 months, Co-Hive has emerged as a game-changing service — winning “Best New Disability Service” at the Australian Disability Service Awards 2024 and gaining national recognition for doing things differently.
We’re here to fill a critical gap. Too often, young people with disability leave school full of dreams, but quickly lose direction as they face a system that isn’t built for them. Co-Hive is rewriting that story — helping participants build skills, confidence, and independence through hands-on, person-led programs that lead to real outcomes in open employment, social connection, and independent living.
Our model is bold, creative, and grounded in real relationships. We co-design every program with participants and their families and work closely with employers, educators, and community partners to build pathways that truly empower. Our work is guided by the core values of self-determination, inclusion, and possibility.
With strong demand and a growing reputation, Co-Hive is now preparing to expand across NSW and beyond. This is a rare opportunity to join a team at the forefront of change — and help shape the future of an organisation already making a profound difference in people’s lives.
About the Role
We’re looking for a Program Assistant who is passionate about helping young adults with disability build skills for life. This is not a carer role — it’s a dynamic, hands-on position where you will support participants to grow their independence, confidence, and capacity through structured programs.
You’ll work directly with participants to help them set and achieve goals around employment, education, social connection, and community participation. From travel training and team projects to digital skills and job readiness, you’ll play a key role in their learning journey.
You’ll be guided by the Program Manager and work closely with Program Facilitators to deliver sessions, lead small group activities, and provide 1:1 support — always with a focus on building skills for the future.
What You’ll Do
As a Program Assistant at Co-Hive, you’ll help bring programs to life — not by simply supporting, but by actively contributing to the development of young adults as they build the skills, confidence, and independence to take charge of their future.
You’ll work closely with participants to help them achieve their individual goals around employment, further education, social connection, and community participation. You’ll play a vital role in promoting self-determination, supporting participants to advocate for themselves, make informed choices, and feel a true sense of belonging at Co-Hive.
Your key responsibilities include:
Program Contribution & Participant Support
Support the delivery of structured group programs across a variety of interest and skill-building areas
Lead small-group and 1:1 activities such as travel training, digital skills, budgeting, or goal-setting
Help participants practise everyday skills through hands-on, real-world learning and community engagement
Adapt and personalise your support to ensure all participants feel capable, included, and empowered
Work closely with participants to help them achieve their individual goals — whether that’s building independence, getting a job, or exploring further education
Promoting Self-Determination & Confidence
Encourage participants to make choices, solve problems, and reflect on their progress
Support the development of self-advocacy and communication skills
Help participants find their voice, speak up about their needs, and take ownership of their learning journey
Foster a strong sense of community and connection, where everyone feels valued, respected, and part of something bigger
Team Collaboration
Work in partnership with your Program Facilitator to plan and deliver high-quality, engaging sessions
Share insights from your work with participants to help tailor the learning experience
Contribute to a positive, inclusive team culture where all ideas are welcomed
Support the day-to-day running of the hub — including preparing resources, setting up spaces, and ensuring the environment remains welcoming and safe
Technology & Communication
Confidently use digital tools (Google Workspace, Canva, AI platforms, etc.) to support participants and enhance program delivery
Assist with note-taking, recording progress, and ensuring documentation meets NDIS requirements
Maintain professional and respectful communication with families, carers, and support networks
Follow all Co-Hive processes and uphold our values of respect, creativity, inclusion, and excellence
We’re Looking For Someone With:
Experience working with people with disability or in related support, education, or youth development roles
A calm, empathetic, and proactive approach
Confidence supporting small groups or individuals in learning and goal-setting
Willingness to take initiative while working collaboratively with others
Strong communication, organisation, and digital skills
An interest in using technology and innovation to enhance learning
A strong belief in inclusion, self-determination, and every person’s potential
Experience or Interest in Any of the Following Areas is a Bonus:
Disability or community support
Education or youth mentoring
Hospitality or cooking
Gardening or horticulture
Arts, drama, or creative media
Fitness, sport, or recreation
Animal care
Technology and digital tools
Why Join Co-Hive?
Be part of a warm, inclusive team that values your ideas and passion
Help young adults build real-world skills and confidence for life
Access training and mentorship to grow in your career
Work alongside a passionate, purpose-led team that believes in doing things differently
Enjoy variety, connection, and purpose in every day

About the Role
We’re seeking a highly experienced People & Culture leader to join our management and executive team. You’ll bring a strategic, commercially minded approach to workforce planning, risk mitigation, and organisational development — while championing a safe, inclusive, and high-performing culture.
This is not a role for someone who wants to sit back — we need a hands-on builder who’s ready to get things moving quickly.

Lead implementation and use of Employment Hero as our HR system
Ensure legal and regulatory compliance with Fair Work Act, NES, SCHADS Award, and NDIS Practice Standards
Manage the full employee lifecycle, including recruitment, onboarding, probation, professional development, performance, and exit
Coordinate WorkCover claims and return-to-work processes as needed
Team Leadership & Development
Lead and mentor the People and Culture Administrator to ensure timely and accurate HR administration
Lead and mentor the Hub and Social Engagement Coordinator providing guidance, support, and development opportunities to ensure strong community engagement and alignment with Co-Hive’s values and strategic goals
Coach department leaders on performance management, leadership skills, and staff development
Design and oversee an annual professional development program to build staff capability
Monitor team satisfaction and wellbeing, and lead initiatives that support staff retention and growth
About You – Skills & Experience
You’re a confident, proactive, and values-driven People and Culture leader who is energised by growth and systems building. You’re excited about being part of something early-stage and meaningful, and you thrive in fast-moving environments where every day brings something new.
Tertiary qualifications in Human Resources or a related field
Minimum 4 - 5 years’ experience in an HR leadership or management role
Proven experience building HR functions, systems, and processes from the ground up
Strong working knowledge of employment law, compliance, and industrial relations (SCHADS/NDIS knowledge ideal)
Experience with HRIS platforms (preferably Employment Hero)
Excellent interpersonal and coaching skills — you build trust quickly and communicate clearly
A practical, hands-on leadership style and the confidence to work across all levels of an organisation
A strong commitment to diversity, inclusion, and empowering others to thrive
A passion for building great teams and delivering purpose-driven impact

About Co-Hive

Co-Hive is a purpose-driven and fast-growing organisation based in Alexandria, Sydney, dedicated to supporting young adults with disability aged 17–35 as they transition from school to adult life. In just 18 months, Co-Hive has emerged as a game-changing service — winning “Best New Disability Service” at the Australian Disability Service Awards 2024 and gaining national recognition for doing things differently.

We’re here to fill a critical gap. Too often, young people with disability leave school full of dreams, but quickly lose direction as they face a system that isn’t built for them. Co-Hive is rewriting that story — helping participants build skills, confidence, and independence through hands-on, person-led programs that lead to real outcomes in open employment, social connection, and independent living.

Our model is bold, creative, and grounded in real relationships. We co-design every program with participants and their families and work closely with employers, educators, and community partners to build pathways that truly empower. Our work is guided by the core values of self-determination, inclusion, and possibility.

With strong demand and a growing reputation, Co-Hive is now preparing to expand across NSW and beyond. This is a rare opportunity to join a team at the forefront of change — and help shape the future of an organisation already making a profound difference in people’s lives.

The Opportunity

As Co-Hive’s Inclusive Employment & Pathways Lead, you will be the driving force behind creating real-world opportunities for our participants. This is a role that blends strategic leadership with hands-on delivery - ensuring every participant has the support, tools, and connections they need to thrive in open employment, further education, and community life.

You will wear two key hats:

• Dedicated Job Coach – placing participants at the centre of every decision, helping them prepare for, secure, and sustain meaningful employment.

• Connector & Innovator – with deep knowledge of each Co-Hive program and participant needs, you will create and implement experiences and opportunities that enhance learning, putting theory into practice.

Based at the Co-Hive Hub, you’ll still be out and about - meeting employers, visiting workplaces, hosting excursions and field trips, and building community connections. This is a go-getter role for someone who thrives on variety, has excellent administrative and communication skills, and can juggle multiple stakeholders while delivering measurable impact.

Key Responsibilities

1. Community Connections & Opportunity Creation

• Build and maintain a diverse network of employers, industries, training providers, tertiary institutions, and community organisations.

• Develop and deliver excursions, incursions, industry visits, and work experience opportunities that align with participant goals.

• Work across all Co-Hive programs to create hands-on, real-life learning experiences, enhancing program content and outcomes.

• Research and identify opportunities for participants to explore career pathways, skills training, and further education.

• Leverage your own networks to forge new connections and bring fresh opportunities to Co-Hive.

2. Individual Employment Planning

• Collaborate with participants and their support networks to create Individual Employment Plans tailored to their skills, aspirations, and needs.

• Support participants in developing self-advocacy, confidence, and transferable workplace readiness skills.
