About the Role

As an Administration Officer, you’ll provide essential administrative support that keeps our aged care home running smoothly. Your responsibilities include reception, customer service, finance processing, records management, rostering, and supporting both residents and staff.

At the David Buttfield Centre, you’ll join a supportive Residential Care team that puts residents at the centre of every decision. We work collaboratively, communicate openly, and focus on solutions rather than barriers.

  • Strong IT skills across a range of applications

  • Excellent communication and customer service skills
