**About the role**
The GM works as part of the Senior Leadership Team, holding responsibility for the operations of our disability and aged care portfolios, and contributing to the overall strategic direction of the organisation.

This role is responsible for leading a workforce of circa 300 staff and volunteers in the delivery of high-quality services and ensuring positive outcomes for the clients and families of CatholicCare’s Disability and Seniors programs.
