Aged & Disability Support (Community Services & Development)
Most of us want to know we're doing work that matters. But a lot of us struggle to build careers that allow for it, so we end up working long hours in demanding roles.
At Warrigal, you'll get to swap the hustle for a career with purpose. One that makes a positive difference to the lives of older people and their families.
For us, there's no greater honour. When we bring joy and quality of life to older people, we give them the dignity, community, and belonging they deserve. We allow them to enjoy better quality time and build lasting memories with their families, and we create a society that celebrates and respects aging.

You will be responsible for coordinating the health, welfare, and social requirements of self-care customers, as well as cultivating and sustaining vibrant, active village communities.

Additionally, you will liaise with external service providers, assist prospective residents, support transitions between care services, and work with property services to minimise vacancies.
