Do you thrive on complexity, precision, and human connection?

If you're someone who enjoys all three in equal measure, we'd really like to hear from you.

We're looking for a capable, grounded woman to join an established team supporting a woman about to turn 30 whose changing physical needs now require a high level of hands-on support.

She is bright, curious and deeply engaged with the world around her, with a strong interest in health, conscious living and social justice.

For the right person, there's something incredibly satisfying about becoming highly skilled in supporting one person exceptionally well. You get to know one person deeply — her communication, routines, preferences, physical needs, personality and the subtle things that tell you how she's travelling that day.

Her support has become increasingly physical and complex, so we're looking for someone who finds satisfaction in learning the detail, understanding why things are done a particular way, and delivering support with consistency and precision.

The Role

You'll be involved in

- personal care and detailed daily routines
- mobility support with use of equipment
- two-person assistance for aspects of physical support
- meal preparation and support throughout the day
- responding calmly to changing physical needs, discomfort and fatigue
- learning and consistently applying established routines
- working closely alongside an experienced team

You'll receive comprehensive onboarding and training before you're expected to work independently.

Who We're Looking For





We're particularly interested in women who are steady under pressure.

You don't need to be unflappable or have seen everything before. But you do need to be someone who can think clearly when things become complex, take direction, accept feedback and keep learning.

You'll likely suit this role if you:

- enjoy complex, hands-on support
- have excellent attention to detail
- appreciate clear processes and specific ways of doing things
- are observant and responsive to change
- communicate clearly and thoughtfully
- are physically capable and comfortable with hands-on support
- are reliable, adaptable and genuinely flexible
- bring warmth, humour and genuine human connection to your work

Previous experience providing complex support would be highly regarded.

Availability

Wednesday and Thursday availability is essential, along with strong availability across Monday to Friday.

This isn't a role built around a completely fixed weekly roster. Flexibility matters. Support requirements can change, so we're looking for people who have enough availability to move with the roster while still providing dependable, ongoing support.

Some weekend backup would be a bonus, but isn't essential.

- Open Driver's Licence and reliable vehicle

- Able to travel reliably to Karalee

- Comfortable using everyday technology including email, shared calendars and electronic notes
