Be part of a growing village community

Looking for an administration role where you can build genuine connections and make a difference in people’s day? Living Choice Parkwood is continuing to grow, and we’re looking for a friendly, organised and proactive Administration Assistant / Receptionist to join our village team.

This is much more than a traditional reception role. You’ll be the welcoming face of the village while supporting administration, resident activities, current resident onboarding and the day-to-day running of the community.

What you’ll be doing

Your days will be varied, with plenty of interaction with residents, families, visitors and the wider community.

You’ll

- Welcome residents, visitors and contractors and respond to enquiries.
- Provide day-to-day administration support to the Village Manager.
- Prepare resident communications, correspondence and reports.
- Maintain resident records, files and village information.
- Welcome new residents and help them settle into village life.
- Coordinate resident activities, outings and community partnerships.
- Prepare the weekly resident communique and monthly activities calendar.
- Process maintenance requests and assist with office coordination.
- Provide debtor and creditor administration, including payments, receipts, statements and reconciliations.
- Assist with village records, accreditation and compliance documentation.
- Drive the village vehicle for approved resident outings when required.

You may also assist with resident alarms and emergency calls in accordance with your training and village procedures.

About you

You’re someone who enjoys helping people, building relationships and keeping things organised.

You’ll bring

- Previous administration,



reception or similar experience.
- Strong Microsoft Word, Excel and Outlook skills.
- Excellent written and verbal communication.
- Strong organisation and attention to detail.
- Confidence juggling different priorities throughout the day.
- A friendly, patient and professional approach.
- Initiative and the ability to work independently and as part of a team.
- Respect for confidentiality, privacy and resident independence.

Experience in a retirement village, community living environment or similar resident-focused setting would be an advantage but isn’t essential.

You’ll also need

- A current driver licence suitable for the village vehicle.
- A current First Aid qualification or willingness to obtain.
- A National Police Check, or willingness to obtain one in accordance with company requirements.
