Are you a master of planning unforgettable experiences? Do you know how to turn an ordinary day into something extraordinary?
We’re looking for a Lifestyle Manager who can lead a team, spark joy, and craft meaningful engagement every single day. If you’ve ever coordinated a festival, managed an event schedule, led community programs—or even hosted karaoke night on a cruise ship—this might be your next big move.

About the Role
As our Lifestyle Manager, you’ll be the creative engine behind a vibrant engagement program for older adults. You’ll lead a passionate team, partner with hospitality and clinical leads, and bring energy and innovation to a lifestyle experience that’s anything but ordinary.
What You’ll Be Doing
Designing and delivering a jam-packed calendar of activities and events
Leading, mentoring, and inspiring a team of lifestyle staff and volunteers
Developing programs that reflect creativity, individuality, and culture
Collaborating with chefs, clinicians, families and the community to keep the experience fresh
Supporting engagement for people living with dementia or cognitive changes
Tracking outcomes, gathering feedback, and driving continuous improvement
What You Bring
A qualification in Leisure and Health, Community Services, Events, or similar
Experience running programs that bring people together and leave them smiling
A bold, creative spirit with leadership experience
The ability to work autonomously and bring fresh ideas to the table
A genuine passion for people, inclusion, and memorable experiences
Why Work With Us?
At CGH, we don’t do boring. We do resident-led, vibrant, and fun. We back you to be bold and give you the freedom to shape the role.
You’ll be joining a workplace that values innovation, encourages autonomy, and sees lifestyle as essential—not optional.
