As a leading aged care provider, BlueCross offers a wide range of flexible and responsive aged and community care services across metropolitan and regional Victoria. We promote

Our priority is for our consumers to remain healthy, happy and getting the most out of life.

**Ok, let me explain this role a little differently. This isn’t your traditional hands-on caring role, this is a Customer Service Role, this is a problem-solving role, this is also a role where you are helping clients over the phone and making a difference**

**Now that you have the basics of the role, we would love for you to read on and consider working in our collaborative and passionate Client Services Team.**

A flexible combination of working-from-home and at our Central Office in Hawthorn East (soon to be Burnley/Richmond), we all support and encourage each other to succeed, whilst having fun doing it
