Are you an experienced Clinical Care Coordinator (CCC) ready to take the next step in your leadership journey? Or perhaps you’re a seasoned NUM looking for a lifestyle change in one of Victoria’s beautiful regional communities?

We are seeking a dedicated, clinical leader to head our Aged Care Unit. This is more than just a management role; it’s an opportunity to shape the culture of care and lead a team that feels like family.


The Opportunity

As the Nurse Unit Manager, you will oversee the daily clinical operations, staffing, and resident outcomes of our high-quality aged care wing. You will be the bridge between clinical excellence and compassionate service.

  • Location: Regional Victoria (various scenic locations available)

  • Term: Full-time, Permanent

  • Relocation: Generous relocation assistance provided for the right candidate!

What You’ll Bring

We aren’t just looking for a manager; we’re looking for a leader. Whether you are currently a NUM or a confident CCC ready to step up, we want to hear from you.

  • Leadership Experience: Proven ability to mentor staff, manage rosters, and drive clinical standards.

  • Clinical Expertise: A deep understanding of aged care standards, ACFI/AN-ACC requirements, and person-centered care.

  • Registration: Current, unconditional AHPRA registration as a Registered Nurse.

  • Communication: Exceptional interpersonal skills—you’ll be the primary point of contact for families and external providers.

  • Resilience: A "can-do" attitude and the confidence to make critical decisions in a fast-paced environment.

Why Make the Move?

  • Career Progression: We love seeing CCCs thrive and will provide the support you need to transition into a NUM role.

  • Lifestyle: Trade the city traffic for fresh air, shorter commutes, and a lower cost of living.

  • Impact: In regional healthcare, you aren't just a number; you are a vital pillar of the community.
