What is it like to work at WALK

  • I work in WALK because I truly believe that everyone, no matter their ability, deserves access to quality healthcare, to be seen, heard, and supported with dignity. WALK does not just talk about change — we create it, WALK gives me the chance to be part of making a difference. It’s not just a job; it’s where my heart is, and that’s what keeps me here every single day.
  • WALK has always encouraged, supported, valued and given me the chance to take on new challenges, advance my career and to contribute my skills to our shared goals. I appreciate the autonomy, flexibility and support that WALK has provided me. Great things in an organization are never achieved by one person, and I am proud to be a part of a respectful, inclusive and collaborative team and leadership that makes a positive impact on the community. I love working at WALK!
  • There is a clear path to grow within the organisation. Where possible, WALK, respect life outside of work, they are very supportive and understanding during personal struggles, or support with wellbeing, you’re treated like a whole person. I honestly enjoy working for WALK, I love the people I support and my colleagues, there is a positive energy about the organisation and there is always time for a friendly chat and a laugh. I wouldn’t want to work anywhere else.
  • WALK has a very supportive culture, there is a genuine sense of teamwork and care, managers listen, colleagues have your back and you feel like you are never alone when faced with challenges. Your work ethic and contributions do not go unnoticed, whether it’s a simple thank you or an opportunity to progress, WALK’s appreciation is demonstrated in a real and meaningful way.
  • One thing that has stuck with me through my time here thus far in WALK is that we are leaders in a movement for change. Being part of this organization has been eye opening and being able to support people to build a life that has meaning, is something special. I love that we never stop trying to do better for the people we support. I'm grateful to be a part of it all.
