  • A caring nature and genuine passion for working with veterans.
  • Good communication skills and a positive, team-focused attitude.
  • Current CPR, First Aid and Police Check.
  • A valid driver's license and reliable transport.

(If you're new to DVA services, don't worry – we'll support you to learn and grow.)

What We Offer

  • Flexible, family-friendly work arrangements – build a role that fits your lifestyle.
  • Competitive hourly rates plus access to our Employment Hero Discounts.
  • Paid training and ongoing development – we invest in your growth.
  • A supportive and inclusive team that values what you bring.
  • Most importantly – the opportunity to positively impact the lives of veterans every single day.
