What you will be doing
OurDomestic Assistantsput heart into everything they do - no two days look the same, but each one makes a difference.
We are offering a Permanent Part-Time opportunity (40 hours per fortnight) with a consistent roster.
Let us know your availability and preferred working hours, and we'll work with you to establish a set schedule.
Our ideal roster is Monday to Thursday, 9:00am to 2:00pm.
You'll enjoy getting out into the community,
providing in-home support to clients throughout Alexandra Headland, Cotton Tree, Kuluin, Kunda Park, Maroochydore, Mooloolaba and Mountain Creek.
The little things you do can make a big difference.
Your day might include:
Helping keep someone's home feeling comfortable, whether that's tackling the laundry, cleaning the kitchen, or freshening up the bathroom.
Lending a hand with everyday tasks like preparing straightforward meals, making beds, ironing, or shopping.
Sitting down for a cuppa and a chat, because sometimes company can mean just as much as practical help.
Being a familiar face who helps make each day a little easier and a little brighter.
You'll thrive in this role if you:
Love getting to know people and building real, lasting connections.
Have experience with household cleaning and take pride in creating comfortable, welcoming spaces.
Show up with compassion, reliability, and respect, every time.
Genuinely care about helping older Australians live life the way they choose.
Feel confident working independently while staying connected to your local community.
Are physically fit, hold a current Australian Driver's Licence, and have a reliable vehicle.
Have (or are happy to obtain) First Aid, CPR, and a National Criminal History Check.
Belonging Starts Here
We believe real care starts with real belonging.
That means creating a workplace where everyone - no matter their background, culture, or story - feels seen, respected, and safe to be themselves.
We welcome applications from First Nations people, the LGBTIQA+ community, people with disabilities, and those from culturally diverse backgrounds.
Your story matters here.
We proudly work across the lands of the Gubbi Gubbi (Gub-bee Gub-bee), Turrbal, Yuggera, Darumbal, Butchulla (Batjala) & Taribelang Bunda peoples, and extend our respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and communities.
We are committed to creating a culturally safe, inclusive and welcoming workplace for all.
You can still make a big impact.
Volunteering is a great way to give back, connect with your community and support others.
