Village Manager

where can I "find my people"?

With the wonderful people at Serenitas

Serenitas operates and develops over 50's lifestyle communities that provide exceptional facilities with a range of quality and affordable options.

so… tell me about this amazing opportunity?

We are recruiting for one of their luxurious Lifestyle Villages, purpose built for the over 50s seeking a lifestyle where homeowners can create their dream home and still have the freedom to escape and enjoy their travels. Everything is taken care of while they are away

Set on the beautiful Redcliffe Peninsula in the Moreton Bay region, Rothwell offers a relaxed coastal lifestyle with all the essentials close at hand. Stroll along the foreshore, enjoy weekend markets, and soak up the café culture, all while being just a short drive from Brisbane. It's a community-minded area where bayside living meets everyday convenience – the perfect backdrop for both work and life.

It is the ultimate place for lovers of an active lifestyle and perfect for the over 50s in Queensland.

From the first day that the homeowners walk into the community, and throughout their entire journey, the fabulous Village Manager is there to support and manage the day to day operations of the community.

One of the key success factors for this role is to be able to create and maintain a happy, welcoming, caring and safe community that has high homeowner involvement, satisfaction and attracts future homeowners.

so what does a typical day look like?

• Developing rapport and providing outstanding customer service to homeowners

• Serenitas provide terrific support to their village managers to make sure they have all the tools needed to keep their communities humming along.
