Job Summary
Are you passionate about care?
At Continuity
Care, we're building something that doesn't yet exist in Australia: a truly coordinated care ecosystem where disability support, aged care and primary health work together around the person, not around the system.
As our Business Development Manager, you'll lead the growth engine behind this vision. You'll grow our client base across NDIS and community aged care, while facilitating the partnerships, referral networks and government relationships that turn a fragmented sector into a connected one. This is a rare opportunity to shape an integrated, equity-based care model from the ground up one that identifies risk early, keeps people well at home, and ensures no one falls through the cracks between services.
We're looking for someone who sees care not as a transaction but as a relationship someone who believes equitable, coordinated, person-centred care shouldn't depend on how well a person can navigate a complex system. If you're energised by building growth infrastructure from scratch, comfortable moving between boardrooms and living rooms, and genuinely passionate about improving outcomes for people with disability and older Australians, this role offers real scope to shape how care is delivered across an entire region.
Join us in facilitating the care ecosystem of the future one coordinated, equitable relationship at a time.
About
Us
Continuity Care delivers individualised, self-directed disability (NDIS) and community aged care services across six service lines, backed by a mature digital health platform. We're disrupting the traditional health and social care model in Australia connecting primary health, aged care and disability support around the person, catching risk early, and keeping people well at home.
