  • Foster a safe, supportive, and high-quality care environment.

What We're Looking For

  • Current AHPRA registration as an RN.
  • Leadership experience in aged care (DDON, Care Manager, Clinical Manager, Clinical Care Coordinator, or similar).
  • Strong communication and documentation skills.
  • A collaborative, proactive approach with full-time availability (Mon–Fri, 8am–4pm).

Why Consider This Role?

  • Supportive leadership team with strong tenure.
  • Stable workplace with low-risk compliance and minimal complaints.
  • Renovations underway, presenting an exciting growth phase.
  • A genuine career pathway towards further leadership opportunities.

Location: Avalon, Northern Beaches, Sydney
