Description

Lead Clinical Care. Shape Culture. Drive Outcomes That Matter.

An exciting opportunity has become available for an experienced and resident-focused Care Manager to join a growing residential aged care provider that's redefining how care is delivered across its network of communities.

This is an opportunity to join an Australian-owned and independently operated organisation with more than two decades of expertise, an ambitious vision for the future, and genuine opportunities for career progression. Working in partnership with the Facility Manager and executive leadership team, you'll have the autonomy to lead clinical practice across the home, build a high-performing care team and play a key role in shaping resident outcomes as the organisation continues to grow.

The organisation continues to expand its network of homes across Victoria and New South Wales, and continues to invest in its people, systems and leadership capability. With further growth already planned, this role offers the opportunity to make a real impact while positioning yourself for further leadership opportunities as the business continues to grow.
