Are you passionate about making a positive impact in the lives of carers across Australia? The Benevolent Society is excited to announce the growth and expansion of our Carer Gateway Program, and we are looking for dedicated individuals to join our team. The Benevolent Society’s vision is to build a just society where all Australians can live their best life. For more than 200 years we have supported people at the margins of society: children, young people, and their families; First Nations Australians; older people; carers and people with disability. We are an independent, non-religious service provider which supports people to live life their way. We use our practice wisdom to mobilise social movements that advocate for anyone in need and create social change.
We are committed to supporting carers and enhancing their quality of life. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a dynamic and innovative team, as we work together to make a meaningful difference in the lives of carers. Caring for a loved one is important work. Some days caring brings great joy, but some days it can be lonely or a little overwhelming. No matter how you feel today, our Carer’s Gateway will be just a phone call away. Carer’s Gateway is an initiative to provide carers with information, support, counselling, and coaching. Click here to find out more about Carer Gateway!
