About Sunnyfield
Sunnyfield is an industry-leading not-for-profit organisation with 1500 employees delivering over 2000 support services daily.

Our staff are our valued partners and key to Sunnyfield’s success. As advocates of diversity, inclusivity and equality, we strive to have a team that reflects the diversity of the people we support, so their needs are met to the best of our ability.

About the role

- Current Australian drivers licence
