Meet the team: Ashley Watson

Meet Ashley, one of our service delivery Team Leaders based at selectability’s head office in Townsville. Having worked for selectability for almost two years Ashley has worked as both a Lifestyle Support Worker and HR Officer (Mackay & Rockhampton) before recently being promoted to his new leadership role.

In his time at selectability Ashley has found a passion helping consumers in the disability and community service sectors.

As Team Leader Service Delivery, Ashley heads up a team of Lifestyle Support Workers (LSWs) to ensure that the needs of both staff and consumers are met.

"In my new role as Team Leader [Service Delivery] no two days are the same which I really enjoy. I have a diverse range of tasks including managing the delivery of block funded programs and networking with stakeholders.

"Most importantly I work to coach and support a team of LSWs to ensure that the services they are providing meet the specific needs of our consumers."

Starting his career with selectability as an LSW Ashley has first-hand knowledge of the challenges of the role and is ready to take on the task of leading the team.

"Being able to support our LSWs is a privilege and I am very passionate about working alongside them to ensure we are providing our consumers with the best support possible."

selectability’s commitment to its employees, career progression opportunities and flexible working arrangements are just three things that Ashley enjoys most about his role.

"I love selectability’s commitment to their staff. selectability managements has put their trust in me and I have been able to progress through various positions within the organisation. I am really looking forward to continuing as part of the selectability family and for the challenges that my new role will bring."
