Community Nursing Lead- Canberra

1 day ago


Canberra Australian Capital Territory Australia Harwell Home Care Pty Full time $80,000 - $120,000 per year

Lead with passion. Empower your team. Change lives every single day.

  • Canberra, ACT | Hybrid (Work-from-home admin and on-the-ground clinical care)
  • Full-time (38 hours per week)
  • Part-time arrangement can be negotiated if full-time availability is not possible.

About Us

At Harwell Home Care, we believe real care happens when you lead with heart and act with purpose. We are a family-owned provider of aged and community care services, approved to deliver both and Department of Veterans' Affairs (DVA) supports. Our mission is simple but powerful: to help older Australians live safely, confidently, and independently in their own homes.

We are a fast-growing organisation that champions integrity, innovation, and people-first leadership. If you want to do meaningful work in a company that puts clients and staff at the centre of everything, this is your chance.

The Opportunity

This is not your average leadership role. As our Community Nursing Lead (Clinical Leader) in Canberra, you will be at the frontline of care and leadership, guiding your team, supporting clients, and making a real impact in the community.

Enjoy a flexible hybrid setup where you manage admin tasks from home and deliver hands-on care in the field. Every day will bring something new, and your leadership will directly shape the quality of care delivered.

This role can also be structured as 2 days in a Clinical Leader capacity and 3 days as a Clinical Nurse Specialist (CNS), depending on your preferences and availability.

What You'll Do

  • Be the go-to leader for a passionate team of carers and clinicians
  • Deliver high-quality, values-aligned care directly to clients in their homes
  • Champion clinical excellence, safety, and compassion in every visit
  • Guide and mentor staff to help them thrive in their roles
  • Collaborate across teams to streamline service delivery
  • Lead with purpose and be a role model for our mission and values

What You Bring

You are a powerhouse clinician who leads with empathy and thrives on helping others grow. You care deeply about your clients, your team, and creating systems that work better for everyone.

You'll need:

  • AHPRA – RN registration
  • At least 2 years of experience in a clinical leadership or senior care role
  • A passion for empowering others and creating positive change
  • Strong communication and organisational skills
  • Confidence in balancing hands-on care and team oversight
  • Alignment with Harwell's core values of compassion, respect, and excellence

Why You'll Love It Here

  • Work your way with a flexible hybrid setup
  • Feel the impact through meaningful work that changes lives
  • Grow with us and access leadership pathways as we expand
  • Be valued in a supportive, purpose-driven team
  • Supportive and approachable executive team and leaders
  • A values-driven, collaborative team culture
  • Gifts for your birthday and each year of service
  • Annual Year-End Party
  • Company Culture Engagements Activities
  • Access to accredited learning and development opportunities

This is your chance to lead something that matters. If you're ready to turn your clinical expertise into purpose-driven leadership, Harwell Home Care is ready for you.
