About the role
As an Osara Health Coach, you'll support people who have been diagnosed with cancer, and the people who care for them, to adopt evidence-based behaviours that improve their outcomes, such as exercise, nutrition and symptom tracking. Using empathy and accountability, you'll help participants set meaningful health goals and work towards them. You'll ask good questions, offer practical suggestions and tools, and help people take back a sense of control over their health. You'll guide participants through our structured programs by phone, SMS and email.
Note: We are hiring immediately for Exercise Physiologists, however other health professions are encouraged to apply as we are regularly recruiting for health coaches with other backgrounds.
The roles we are recruiting for will start with 2-3 days per week (9-5), with the opportunity to increase as you progress.
This is a remote role, based Australia-wide.
Key responsibilities
- Run program coaching calls with participants (patients and carers) covering the core elements of holistic cancer support
- Make outbound calls to people with a cancer diagnosis to introduce our program and help them enrol
- Follow up with participants by SMS and email between calls, and schedule sessions
- Keep accurate, confidential notes on participant progress
- Recognise when a participant needs more support and escalate or refer in line with our processes
- Work within a coaching scope of practice. You'll support behaviour change and wellbeing, not provide specific medical advice
- Take part in team meetings and share insights that help us improve our programs
About you
- Registration as an Accredited Exercise Physiologist (other health degrees are welcome to apply)
- At least one of the following: 1–3 years' experience working in a healthcare setting, or health coaching training or experience

- Empathy, patience and compassion, with the resilience to support people through difficult times

- A proactive, organised approach and the ability to manage your own workload remotely
- Good judgement around privacy and confidentiality
- Confidence with technology and learning new tools (we use Slack and macOS; a laptop is provided)
- Experience in oncology or cancer support (desirable)
- Training in motivational interviewing or other coaching approaches (desirable)
