Looking for a Support Coordinator?
The Growing Space are NDIS-registered Support Coordinators working across Australia – in person in SA, WA and QLD, and remotely everywhere else. We help you understand and use your NDIS plan, prepare for reassessments, navigate tricky situations, and find the supports and services that suit your life. Whether you’re plan or self-managed (with Core funds), or funded for Specialist Support Coordination, our goal is to build your skills and confidence, so you need us less over time. Please share some info with us about what you are looking for by filling in our form.


Looking for a Speaker or Custom Training?

Whether it’s about self-management, support coordination, or disability advocacy, we combine lived experience and plain-English advice that cuts through the jargon.
Want to Work as a Support Coordinator?
If you care about inclusion, are a great communicator, and want flexible, meaningful work, we’ll support you with training, tools, resources, and a team that has your back. We welcome applications from both Support Coordinators and Specialist Support Coordinators.
