  • A caring and person-centred approach
  • Excellent time management and reliability
  • A genuine passion for supporting older Australians

Applications close Friday 17th October at 5.00pm.

Due to the high volume of applications, the interview process may commence before the closing date.

You must have the right to live and work in Australia.

Kirinari embrace Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) that promotes a diverse workforce and encourage applications from First Nations & Torres Strait Islander Peoples and applicants from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds.
