Personal Carer

Service Integrated Communities | Goulburn

You are their smile. Their joy. Their morning walks, and tea-time talks. Their keeper of stories; of moments and memories. The dignity they deserve. Community they belong to. And family to come home to. You are their kindness, compassion, empathy, and understanding. The difference in their lives.

**The opportunity | Valued for the impact you make**

It takes a unique person to care the way you do. We see it, our managers see it, and our residents, customers and their families see it. Within this community, you are valued for the impact you make and thanked for your selfless care.

Day to day, you’ll help older people live with dignity, whether that’s helping them get around, go to the bathroom, take a shower, or enjoy a meal with a friendly face - in line with their personalised care plan.

You will help them celebrate life with community-based fun and social activities and bring them a sense of belonging in so doing.

With our high standards in clinical and compassionate care, you will have the space to innovate and excel, doing work you are proud of.

**The benefits | Recognising the difference you make**

**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 Support
- An empathy for older people and commitment to meeting their needs
- 6 months+ experience delivering exceptional customer service within the Aged Care industry
- Strong interpersonal and communication skill

**The 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 giving you variety beyond the expected.

**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.**

**You are the difference | Create a meaningful legacy**

At 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.

We proudly acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the lands on which we work and live, and we honour their ongoing cultural and spiritual connections to Country. We pay our respects to Elders past, present, and emerging.

At Warrigal, we believe in celebrating diversity and creating a culture of inclusion and support in everything we do. We embrace the unique experiences, backgrounds, identities, abilities, and perspectives of our residents, customers, staff, and volunteers to create a warm and welcoming environment where everyone feels valued and respected.
