Description

Suncare is committed to "Making People's Lives Better". We do this through providing innovative personal solutions that support people to live their life, their way.

As a values-based organisation we want our staff to reflect the values that we live by:

Innovative | Inclusive | Agile | Respectful | Authentic | Collaborative | Empathetic

Our customers are at the heart of everything we do and the experience they enjoy is critical to the success of our organisation.

Every day, Suncare employees are making a difference to real people and making people's lives better

About the role

The role of Care Coordinator is responsible for building, supporting, and strengthening the existing social, family and community networks while leading a team of workers to support the customer in their journey.

You will be required to maintain a designated case load of mixed funded packages, including Home Care Package customers.

Meeting with customers in their homes, you will gain an understanding of their needs and subsequently involve the relevant stakeholders in the assessment, planning, implementation, and review process to ensure that our customers achieve the goals and outcomes as identified through their personalised goals and support plans.

In addition, you will lead, mentor, and supervise a small team of direct care staff, facilitate the recruitment and induction of employees, facilitate regular communication through team and individual meetings and provide opportunities for professional growth and development.

In this full-time permanent position, Monday to Friday (8.30am - 4.36pm), you will work with a supportive team of Care Coordinators to service the Sunshine Coast region with suburbs including Nambour, Maleny, Palmwoods and surrounds.

Suncare is committed to fully embracing the digital experience and creating a flexible workforce that is agile in meeting the changing needs of our customers and staff.

As such you will be equipped with the technology and resources to complete your role outside of the typical office environment, with the opportunity to complete administrative tasks either at home, in the community or within a Suncare office, making this position an ideal opportunity if you are seeking more flexibility and autonomy in your role.

About You

A tertiary qualification in social/human services or related, and/or experience in individualised service planning, referral and care coordination is highly desirable though not essential.

A demonstrated knowledge of community sector support services and experience working with Home Care Packages would be advantageous as well.
