About us: 

The NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission (NDIS Commission) is the dedicated national regulator of NDIS service providers and workers in Australia. The NDIS Commission upholds the rights of NDIS participants to quality and safe supports or services, including those received under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).

We work with NDIS participants, service providers, workers and the community to make sure participants have choice, control and dignity when they access high-quality supports and services in safe environments.

The NDIS Commission offers graduate roles that make a real difference in the community. We encourage people with disability and lived experience to apply for current vacancies and encourages applications from LGBTQIA+ people, women and people with diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds. 

We welcome and encourage applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. 

The NDIS Commission participates in RecruitAbility, supporting people with disability to apply and work within the organisation.
