About INTENSIVE CARE AT HOME

Intensive Care at Home is Australia's only third-party accredited specialist home ICU nursing provider — ISO 9001:2015 certified, BSI Group audited, with a zero non-conformance record. As an NDIS-registered provider operating across Victoria, NSW, Queensland, South Australia and Western Australia, we deliver hospital-level intensive care nursing — including invasive and non-invasive ventilation, tracheostomy management, and complex critical care — safely, in our clients' own homes.

Our team of 150+ Critical Care Registered Nurses gives families and participants an alternative to prolonged hospitalisation and long-term ICU admission.

We are Australia's pioneer in this field, operating since 2012, and we set the clinical governance benchmark that others are now trying to follow.

About the Role

We're looking for an experienced clinical leader to take on the National Clinical Operations Manager role, overseeing clinical service delivery, governance, and quality across all states in which we operate. Reporting directly to the Director, you'll lead our clinical governance framework, ensure our accreditation-grade standards are maintained and strengthened, and support the continued national growth of our service.

This is a senior, hands‑on leadership role for someone who can operate confidently at both the strategic level (governance, compliance, accreditation, stakeholder engagement) and the operational level (client outcomes, incident investigation, staff supervision and development).

Key Responsibilities

- Oversee secure, effective delivery of complex home-based care nationally — including tracheostomy management, ventilation, PEG feeds and catheter care
- Lead the clinical governance framework: policies, procedures, audits,



incident investigation and Root Cause Analysis (RCA)
- Maintain and drive our accreditation standards (ISO 9001:2015, NDIS Practice Standards) across all states
- Supervise, support and develop Critical Care Registered Nurses and state-based clinical teams
- Conduct clinical risk assessments and implement mitigation strategies
- Liaise with GPs, hospitals, specialists and allied health professionals to coordinate client care
- Engage with families to ensure satisfaction and client‑centred care
- Report on clinical KPIs, incident trends, staffing requirements and service gaps to the Director
- Support national service expansion, tender submissions and funding applications
- Represent Intensive Care at Home in provider forums, stakeholder meetings and promotional events

What We Are Looking For

- Current AHPRA registration (Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia)
- Recognised postgraduate qualification in intensive care / critical care nursing
- Substantial ICU/critical care clinical experience, with proven leadership of multidisciplinary nursing teams
- In‑depth knowledge of clinical governance frameworks, NDIS Practice Standards and accreditation processes
- Strong incident investigation and RCA experience
- Excellent communication skills, with the ability to engage clinicians, families and stakeholders professionally and compassionately
- Confidence operating across multiple states and working remotely
- A valid driver's licence, NDIS Worker Screening Check, and a police check less than 2 years old (or willingness to obtain)
