Suncare Community Services – Rockhampton QLD
Why You'll Love Working at Suncare
Getting older can mean giving up a lot, your home, your routine, your sense of independence. We don't think it should.
At Suncare, we're passionate about helping older Australians continue living the life they love, in the place they love most, their own home.
With more than 800 team members and 200 volunteers across Queensland, we're known for delivering care that's personal, local and built on genuine relationships.
Whether it's helping with daily tasks, supporting someone to stay connected to their community, or simply sharing a cuppa and a chat, we make every moment matter.
We believe the same level of care should extend to our people. That's why we invest in creating a supportive, rewarding workplace where you feel valued, connected and empowered to make a real difference.

We welcome applications from First Nations people, the LGBTIQA+ community, people with disabilities, and those from culturally diverse backgrounds. Your story matters here.
