Facility Manager

Lead with Purpose. Build Culture. Make a Genuine Impact.

Exceptional remuneration package available for the right candidate

Not all Facility Manager roles are the same.

Some are about maintaining operations.

This one is about leading people, building culture and making a genuine difference to the lives of residents, families and employees.

We are seeking an experienced and people-focused Facility Manager to lead a Residential Aged Care home in Grafton, NSW.

Located in the beautiful Clarence Valley, this is an opportunity to combine a rewarding senior leadership position with the lifestyle and community that regional NSW has to offer.

We're looking for someone who can walk into a service, inspire confidence, engage their team and lead from the front. Someone who genuinely cares about residents, supports their people and understands how strong leadership translates into exceptional care.

You'll have genuine autonomy to lead while being backed by an experienced operational, clinical and corporate support network.

Why This Role Stands Out

Great aged care services start with great leaders.

You'll be supported by:

• An experienced senior and operational leadership team

• Dedicated clinical governance and quality support

• A values-driven, not-for-profit organisation

• Genuine autonomy to lead and influence your home

• An organisation committed to continuous improvement

• Strong corporate support while maintaining local decision-making

• The opportunity to make a visible impact within the Grafton community

What's On Offer

• Attractive remuneration package based on experience

• Salary packaging benefits of up to $15,900 tax free

• Additional Meal & Entertainment salary packaging benefits

• Paid AHPRA registration

• Platinum membership with the Australian College of Nursing

• Employee Assistance Program

• Health and wellbeing initiatives

• Ongoing professional development and leadership support

• Career progression opportunities within a large aged care organisation

• Supportive and collaborative working environment

• The opportunity to genuinely shape the culture and performance of a service

The Opportunity

As Facility Manager, you'll take overall responsibility for the leadership, operations and performance of the Residential Aged Care home.

More importantly, you'll set the tone for the service.

You will:

• Build, lead and mentor an engaged and accountable multidisciplinary team

• Drive exceptional resident-centred care outcomes

• Create a positive workplace culture where employees feel supported and valued

• Oversee workforce planning, staffing, budgets and operational performance

• Ensure compliance with the Aged Care Quality Standards and relevant legislation

• Lead quality improvement, accreditation and continuous improvement initiatives

• Build strong relationships with residents, families and the local community

• Work closely with clinical and operational leadership to identify and address areas for improvement

• Champion quality, safety and excellence across the home

This is an opportunity for a leader who wants more than simply managing the day-to-day operations of a service. You'll have the ability to influence how the home operates, develop your people and leave a lasting impact.

About You

You're an experienced aged care leader who knows how to balance compassion, clinical governance and strong operational leadership.

You'll bring:

• Current Registered Nurse registration with AHPRA

• Leadership experience within Residential Aged Care

• Previous Facility Manager experience highly regarded

• Strong knowledge of the Aged Care Quality Standards and regulatory requirements

• Experience managing compliance, workforce and operational performance

• Demonstrated ability to lead and develop multidisciplinary teams

• Strong quality improvement and risk management capability

• Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills

• A proactive, resilient and solutions-focused approach

• A genuine passion for improving the lives of older Australians
