What you will be doing

For this role, you will be required to use your own reliable vehicle to travel to customer homes and help transport the people we support in the community.
This is a casual role (approximately 25 hours a week), working around three to four days per week. Hours will be rostered between Monday to Friday, 8:00am–5:00pm, in line with operational needs and employee availability.

* Show up with compassion, reliability, and respect – every time
* Feel confident working independently while staying connected to your local community
* Genuinely care about helping older Australians live life the way they choose
