At Australian Unity, we're reimagining how health and care are delivered in our local communities. By working together differently, we help customers live healthier, more independent, and fulfilling lives, while staying connected to supportive communities.
As a
Care Team Leader
, you'll have the chance to make a real impact - both for your team and the customers you serve. You'll guide, mentor, and empower a team of dedicated carers, ensuring they feel supported to deliver safe, consistent, and high-quality care every day. This is a hands-on leadership role where no two days are the same - you'll balance leading people with navigating daily challenges, driving teamwork, and creating an environment where carers thrive and customers live their best lives.
This is a permanent, full-time position based in either our Moruya or Bega office, offering a hybrid work model with 3 days in the office and 2 days working from home. Standard working hours are 9:00am to 5:00pm. In this role, you will lead and support care workers across the Eurobodalla and Bega regions, regularly engaging with frontline teams to ensure the delivery of safe, high-quality care. You will be required to travel between the Moruya and Bega offices approximately once per month.
