Lead a thriving large aged care home where you'll be trusted to make decisions, build an engaged team and genuinely influence resident outcomes.

If you're an experienced Service Manager or Facility Manager looking for a role where your leadership is valued, not micromanaged, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for.

We're partnering with a highly regarded not-for-profit aged care provider located 45 minutes south of Ipswich seeking a confident leader to take the reins of a well-established residential service. With strong regional support behind you, you'll have the autonomy to lead your team while focusing on what matters most: quality care, engaged employees and operational excellence.

Why You'll Love This Role
  • Lead a large residential aged care home
  • Join a respected not-for-profit with genuine values
  • Enjoy the autonomy to lead your service your way
  • Work alongside an experienced and supportive regional leadership team

What You'll Be Doing
  • Lead all aspects of the home's operations, performance and culture.
  • Inspire and develop a multidisciplinary team.
  • Drive occupancy, financial performance and service outcomes.
  • Ensure exceptional clinical governance and compliance.
  • Build trusted relationships with residents, families and the local community.
  • Champion continuous improvement and a positive workplace culture.

What We're Looking For
You're someone who can walk into a service, quickly build credibility and confidently lead from the front.

You'll bring:
  • Previous leadership experience as a Service Manager or Facility Manager within residential aged care (ideally 3+ years, although candidates with around 2 years of strong leadership experience will also be considered).
  • Experience leading medium to large residential aged care homes.
  • Strong operational, financial and people leadership capability.
  • Sound knowledge of the Aged Care Quality Standards and clinical governance.
  • A passion for building high-performing teams and delivering outstanding resident care.

What's In It For You?
  • $145,000 + Super + Salary Packaging + 5 weeks annual leave
  • Laptop and phone provided.
  • Professional development and genuine career progression.
  • The opportunity to lead a large, established service where your experience will be valued from day one.

Please note: Relocation assistance is generally not offered for this position, although it may be considered for an exceptional candidate.
