Coordinator of Volunteers/Aged Care Program Coordinator

Part time | 22.8 hours per week (Tuesday - Thursday) | Home-based with community engagement

This is a busy and autonomous role with clear performance expectations and juggling tasks and responsibilities. It is best suited to someone who enjoys taking ownership, managing competing priorities and achieving measurable outcomes.

This role is not suitable for applicants who will be undertaking ongoing caring responsibilities or other regular commitments during work hours.

- Recruiting, screening, onboarding and supporting volunteers

- Monitoring program activity against funded targets and KPIs

- Maintaining accurate, compliant and audit-ready records

- Building and maintaining professional relationships with aged care providers and community organisations

- Representing Ageing with Grace professionally and ethically at all times

- Be accountable, reliable and committed to following through on your responsibilities

- Enjoy working in a rapid-paced environment with changing priorities

- Be compassionate and respectful when working with older people and diverse communities

- Experience maintaining detailed records and producing accurate reports

- A current driver's license and access to a comprehensively insured vehicle

- Willingness to complete and maintain a National Police Check

- The ability to travel regularly throughout the ACT region

Experience in aged care, volunteer management or community services will be highly regarded.

Why Join Ageing with Grace?
