- Ensure timesheets and records are completed accurately and on time.
What you’ll bring
- Proven rostering experience (essential) ideally within aged care, disability, community or similar.
- Strong communication skills with a genuine customer-first approach.
- Excellent organisational and prioritisation skills, especially in fast-moving environments.
- A solid understanding of best-practice rostering, workforce management and optimisation.
- Confidence using rostering systems and digital tools.
- Empathy, professionalism, and the ability to build rapport with diverse people.
- A proactive, adaptable mindset — you move with change rather than resist it.
