About the Role

We’re looking for a hands‑on Maintenance Officer to support the smooth operation of our Macquarie Park site. This casual role offers flexibility (ideally around three days per week) and the opportunity to use your trade skills in a meaningful, purpose‑driven environment.

You’ll carry out a mix of preventative and reactive maintenance across buildings, plant, equipment, furniture, fittings, and paintwork. You’ll log and manage tasks through our CMMS, assist with asset management, and work closely with staff and contractors to ensure the site remains safe, functional, and welcoming.

If you enjoy practical work, problem‑solving, and seeing the impact of your efforts, this role offers consistent, rewarding work without the full‑time commitment.

About the Team

You’ll join a supportive, down‑to‑earth maintenance team that values communication, reliability, and pride in workmanship. We work collaboratively to create a safe and comfortable environment for residents, visitors, and staff.

Why Join Us?

At BaptistCare, we value our employees and foster a positive, inclusive work environment. You’ll enjoy:

  • Competitive hourly rate with 25% casual loading

  • 12% superannuation

  • Tax‑free salary packaging up to $18,550 per year

  • Flexible work arrangements

  • Additional leave options and work‑life balance

  • Discounted gym memberships and novated leasing

  • Access to wellbeing programs including free counselling, spiritual support, and nutrition advice

  • Career development opportunities, including study assistance up to $3000 per year and access to LinkedIn Learning

  • A stable, purpose‑driven organisation with more than 110 years of service

About You

You’re someone who enjoys hands‑on work, takes initiative, and manages your workload effectively. You bring:

  • Solid maintenance experience

  • A trade background or relevant qualifications will be highly regarded

  • Experience working with contractors

  • Confidence using Microsoft 365 and a CMMS

  • Strong communication and teamwork skills

  • A current driver’s license

  • Experience in aged care or healthcare is desirable but not essential
