What do we look for in a Care Worker? 

  • You care about assisting our aged community so they can live independently at home for longer. 
  • You have a current P1 class or above Australian Drivers License and a registered vehicle – travel is part of the role.
  • You don’t sweat the small stuff; sometimes your customer will be having a bad day or traffic delays you. You know not to take this personally and to shake it off before your next customer.
  • You're available to work at least 3 days - Monday - Friday. No night or weekend work here.
  • You're comfortable working independently and finding solutions to everyday problems, knowing when to ask your Manager for help.
