About the Role

As a Life Redesign Coach, you'll work alongside a multidisciplinary team of professional coaches to support people living with brain injury and stroke.

Using our "doing-with" rather than "doing-for" approach, you'll help people achieve meaningful goals, build independence and participate in everyday life.

• Supporting personal care, daily routines and individual Life Redesign goals
• Cooking, meal preparation and supporting nutrition
• Cleaning, laundry and maintaining shared living spaces
• Supporting exercise programs, recreation and community outings
• Encouraging independence, choice and meaningful connections
• Collaborating with other coaches and completing required documentation

Personal care is a requirement of this position and may include bathing, dressing, toileting, mobility assistance, feeding and tube-delivered nutrition.

Qualifications

• Strong interpersonal, communication and problem-solving skills
• Kind, flexible, dependable and comfortable working as part of a team
• Ability and willingness to cook, clean and provide personal care
• Ability to work independently and remain calm in challenging situations
• Experience with brain injury or caregiving is an asset, but not required

No care aide certification required! We hire for fit and values first and provide comprehensive orientation and on-the-job training.

What We Offer

• Starting wage of $28/hour
• Permanent employment with potential for full-time hours
• Benefits package, including group retirement plan (subject to eligibility)
• Ongoing training and professional development
• A supportive, collaborative coaching environment

Our values are Kindness, Flexibility, Creativity, Learning, Passion and Joy.

If these values resonate with you, we'd love to hear from you!
