Why you will love Working Here

Getting older can mean giving up a lot, your home, your routine, your sense of independence. We don’t think it should.

With more than 800 team members and 200 volunteers, we’re here to help people keep living the life they love, with reliable in-home and community care, a local team who knows the neighbourhood, and the kind of support that always has time for a cuppa and a chat.

And we look after our team the same way. We offer real support, meaningful recognition, and rewards that reflect the difference you make every day.

Here’s what you can expect

Clear, supported career pathways and training to help you grow

Full induction and buddy shifts

Not-for-profit salary packaging ($15,900 per annum)

Kilometres Reimbursement

Leave loading to make your time off even more rewarding

Branded workwear

Employee referral reward program - because good people know good people

Fitness Passport - access to gyms and wellness facilities

Employee Assistance Program - confidential support when you need it

QLeave — portable long service leave that recognises long-term care work

What you will be doing

Our Support Workers put heart into everything they do. You’ll spend your days visiting people in their homes and around the community - no two days look the same, but each one makes a difference.

You’ll help with:

Delivering care that’s tailored to each person’s needs and Care Plan

Personal care, mobility support, and medication reminders

Preparing meals and supporting good nutrition

Providing respite - whether it’s at home or out and about

Lending a hand with household tasks like cleaning, laundry, bed making, and shopping

Offering social support that keeps people connected to what (and who) matters most

For this role, you will be required to use your own reliable vehicle to travel to customer homes and help transport the people we support in the community.

Roles are available on a Permanent Part Time basis (36 to 60 hours per fortnight contracts) and your set roster would be within Monday to Friday 7am to 5pm.

You will Thrive in this role if you

Love getting to know people and building real, lasting connections

Show up with compassion, reliability, and respect - every time

Feel confident working independently while staying connected to your local community

Genuinely care about helping older Australians live life the way they choose

Have experience in aged care, disability support, or community work - a Certificate III is great, but heart and know-how matter just as much

Hold a current Australian Driver’s Licence and have a reliable vehicle

Have (or are happy to get) First Aid, CPR, and a National Criminal History Check

Belonging Starts Here

We believe real care starts with real belonging. That means creating a workplace where everyone - no matter their background, culture, or story - feels seen, respected, and safe to be themselves.

We welcome applications from First Nations people, the LGBTIQA+ community, people with disabilities, and those from culturally diverse backgrounds. Your story matters here.

Apply

If you’re ready to be part of something that truly matters - we’d love to hear from you. Apply online today and start your career with heart!
