- Support the development of Cancer Care services
- Support and facilitate a culture of learning and best practice

**About the region**:
Live by the beach on the beautiful NSW South Coast. The Shoalhaven region is bordered by the mountains, coastal plains and over 100 magnificent beaches. Commute times are short; and when you’re not at work, you can relax on some of the country’s best beaches, explore the stunning coastal rainforests and outdoor adventure activities or enjoy the local dining - all contributing to a perfect work-life balance. It is an easy two hours’ drive from Sydney and home to the beautiful areas of Jervis Bay, Kangaroo Valley, and Mollymook to name a few.

An eligibility list may be created for future Temporary/Permanent Part-Time positions.
