Student Accommodation | Overnight Shifts | Purpose-Driven Support Role

We are currently recruiting Resident Support Officers (RSOs) to work overnight across our current student accommodation sites in Adelaide.

This is a modern, people-first safety role that focuses on wellbeing, respect, and community support – not enforcement. You'll play a key role in creating safe, welcoming residential environments where students feel supported after hours.

If you're looking for a meaningful overnight role where empathy, communication, and presence matter just as much as security capability, this could be the perfect prospect.

This role is ideal for:
