Opening in March 2027, Carlingford Greens Care Community is a brand-new, purpose-built aged care home in Sydney's north-west, supporting 150 residents across permanent, respite and dementia care.

This is a unique opportunity to establish the wellbeing program at a newly opened Care Community and shape the resident experience from the ground up. As Wellbeing Manager, you'll have the freedom to build programs, establish community partnerships and create meaningful opportunities that enrich residents' lives and foster a true sense of belonging.

Featuring beautiful gardens, light-filled living spaces and a vibrant Town Centre with a café, wellness centre and salon, Carlingford Greens has been thoughtfully designed to foster connection, comfort and belonging.
