Location: East Maitland, AU, 2323

Company: Australian Unity

At Australian Unity, we’re reimagining how care is delivered in our local communities—placing customers at the center of everything we do. As part of our Health Concierge – Scheduling Team, you’ll play a vital role in helping customers live independently at home by coordinating safe, timely, and reliable care.

 

In this fast-paced role, you’ll manage care worker schedules, respond to service changes, and ensure the seamless delivery of in-home support. Your work directly contributes to better health outcomes and empowers customers to lead vibrant, fulfilling lives.

Key accountabilities:

  • Coordinate and maintain efficient rosters to match Care Workers with customer needs, managing daily changes, leave, and service reassignments.

  • Work collaboratively with local teams to forecast staffing needs, support recruitment planning, and ensure coverage for new customer onboarding.
  • Manage third-party service bookings, onboarding of new providers, and resolution of service-related issues.
  • Ensure accurate data entry and compliance with systems and processes related to rostering, payroll, training, and documentation.

 

Does this sound like you?

  • Strong communication skills – professional, clear and empathetic.
  • Proven ability to prioritise, manage competing deadlines, and stay calm under pressure.
