We are now seeking an experienced operational leader with strong strategic capability and a proven record driving large-scale operational change to oversee a key NSW/ACT portfolio. While retirement living experience is highly regarded, we also welcome applicants from other customer-centric, multi-site service environments who bring the right leadership, commercial and change management capability.
You are an experienced people leader who brings strong operational capability, commercial insight and a project-minded approach to driving uplift across multiple sites. You build trust quickly, communicate with clarity, and lead teams through change with confidence and empathy.
If you are a senior operational leader with a track record of leading people, driving operational uplift and delivering change at scale, we’d love to hear from you.
Retirement living experience is strongly preferred, but not essential for the right operational leader with strong people, commercial and change capabilities.
- High digital capability and confidence in using systems and data to drive accountability.
- Resilience, adaptability and the ability to lead teams through ambiguity and change.
- Leadership experience overseeing multiple sites or service locations within a regulated, customer-focused environment.
- Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills, including the ability to build trusted relationships with residents, committees and internal partners.
