Warners Bay NSW, Australia Australian Unity Full time $60,000 - $90,000 per year

At Australian Unity, we're transforming care by putting people and communities first. Across 50+ Neighbourhoods nationwide, our carers work with collaboration, compassion, and innovation to help ageing Australians stay healthy, independent, and connected at home. We're creating a trusted, personal healthcare experience built around what matters most to our customers.

As a Care Team Leader, you'll have the opportunity to make a real impact — both for your team and the customers you serve. You'll guide, mentor, and empower a team of dedicated carers, ensuring they feel supported to deliver safe, consistent, and high-quality care every day. This is a hands-on leadership role where no two days are the same — you'll balance leading people with navigating daily challenges, driving teamwork, and creating an environment where carers thrive and customers live their best lives.

This is a full-time role based at our Warners Bay Branch.

Key Accountabilities

  • Leading, mentoring, and supporting a team of personal carers to deliver safe, high-quality, person-centred care
  • Coaching and developing your team through regular feedback, training, and performance discussions
  • Overseeing daily service delivery, including scheduling, compliance, and quality assurance
  • Collaborating with internal teams to resolve issues, respond to incidents, and improve customer outcomes
  • Supporting recruitment, onboarding, and ongoing development to build a capable and engaged workforce
  • Championing a culture of safety, wellbeing, and compliance with aged care standards and regulations
  • Fostering an inclusive and positive team culture that promotes open communication, continuous improvement, and reflects Australian Unity's values

To succeed as a Care Team Leader, you'll bring a blend of leadership, compassion, and practical know-how, including:

  • Prior experience leading teams - aged care sector experience is not essential
  • Ability to coach, mentor, and develop others
  • Strong customer focus with a commitment to person-centred care
  • Confident decision-making, resilience, and strong self-management skills
  • Excellent communication and ability to engage with frontline teams
  • Knowledge of aged care quality standards, funding, and compliance requirements ideal but not essential
  • Proficiency with the Microsoft Office suite
  • Experience with supporting employees with return to work plans advantageous
  • A continuous improvement mindset to drive service and team performance

Why work for Australian Unity?

  • Additional Leave benefits including Community, Wellbeing & Deep Listening Leave
  • Flexible Work Options –hybrid role combining Branch days & WFH
  • Career development with full access to LinkedIn Learning & internal opportunities
  • Staff discounts across our insurance products as well as our travel and retail partners
  • Fitness Passport – discounted access to 1,500+ gyms & facilities
  • Novated Car Leasing options through our partners Maxxia or Flair Cars
  • 14 weeks paid Parental Leave
