  • Facilitate training, capability-building, and change management in line with aged care reforms.
  • Embrace technology and innovative practices that improve care quality, safety, and service delivery.

About You

  • Tertiary qualifications in nursing, health management, or aged care leadership.
  • Proven experience in clinical leadership, quality improvement, and risk management.
  • Strong skills in incident investigation, clinical risk management, and data-driven improvement.
  • Excellent stakeholder engagement, communication, and organisational skills.
  • Committed to resident dignity, choice, cultural safety, and clinical excellence.
  • Willingness to embrace technology and innovation in care and governance.

What We Offer

  • A leadership role within a standalone 60-bed not-for-profit organisation.
  • Salary sacrifice benefits to maximise your take-home pay.
  • A supportive leadership team and collaborative workplace culture.
  • Opportunity to shape the future of aged care service delivery.
  • Access to professional development and reform-readiness training.
