Karuna Hospice Service Ltd (“Karuna”) is a community-focused organisation guided by Buddhist principles. Karuna is dedicated to alleviating suffering by fostering choice, agency, and quality of life for all. Through specialised end-of-life care and other holistic supports, we provide compassionate, dignity-centred guidance to individuals, carers, and the broader community.

Successful applicants will have the opportunity to access:

Not-for-profit salary packaging benefits to increase your take home pay
