The requirements | What it takes to do this work No matter your role, it takes a real love of caring, a willingness to jump in and do the work, and a genuine desire to make a difference. As a carer, you'll also need:
A Certificate III in Aged Care/Individual SupportAn empathy for older people and commitment to meeting their needs12 months+ experience delivering exceptional customer service within the Aged Care industryStrong interpersonal and communication skillsThe locations | A home to belong to At Warrigal Goulburn, you can enjoy a meticulously designed and modern home, right in the heart of Goulburn. Experience peace and serenity in our supportive community. Close to the centre of the quintessentially Australian, large country town, Warrigal Goulburn is ideally situated with beautifully designed gardens and landscaping.
What our carers love about working here Unexpected opportunities to grow: You'll find ongoing training and support that allows you bigger responsibilities, more senior roles and potential pay increases. Our preference is to promote from within, so there are opportunities to specialise, become an RN, or move into a non-clinical management role. We offer carer roles across our home, residential and lifestyle services, giving you variety beyond the expected.
Better life balance: We respect your life outside of your job, and work with you to design schedules that help you plan your study, family, and personal commitments around better, steadier rosters.
One team, united in our purpose: We support older people to have great lives. We put older people first in everything we do. On an everyday level, we help them age with dignity, independence, happiness, and connectedness. On a big picture level, we're challenging ageist thinking in Australia. This is the Warrigal Way.
Who we are | A community who caresWarrigal has firmly established itself in the aged care community for over 60 years. Despite the diverse range of retirement living and aged care services we've built up in that time, we still have the same appetite to grow and innovate. Meaning, you'll have the chance to move around, get promoted or explore different areas across our expanding business in Illawarra, Southern Highlands, Queanbeyan, and Canberra – if that's what you want.
You are the difference | Create a meaningful legacyAt Warrigal, you're not just doing care work. You're shaping a society that respects and celebrates ageing, connects families, and frees up their time to create treasured, lasting memories. You're creating a culture of kindness, compassion and understanding that can be passed down to future generations. Let this be your legacy.
