COMPANY DESCRIPTION:

Summerset is one of New Zealand’s fastest growing companies and the third largest retirement village operator in the country. We design, build and operate retirement village’s right across New Zealand. We are proud of our dynamic work environment and an equally diverse workforce.

JOB DESCRIPTION:

We’re searching for a seasoned Manager with a great track record in staff management and customer service. If you’re ready for new challenges, here’s a fantastic opportunity to develop your career in our NAPIER village.
This key leadership role will see you responsible for all staffing and financial management, and will have control over operations to ensure the village runs smoothly every day. You and your team will be backed by an organisation that sees quality of resident lifestyle and care as top priority. If you’re after a role where you have the freedom and support to make effective change, you’ll thrive here.
It’s a role that could suit if you’re an empathetic, confident person with a solid background in customer-facing environments. As we have a Clinical Manager, you’ll focus on the business side of our operations and continue developing a fantastic community for our residents. So, if you’re used to dealing with a wide variety of people, meeting targets, handling customer queries and reviewing operations, you could find this a fascinating and rewarding career move into a growing industry with a secure future.
If your career is already in aged care, you’ll enjoy this role as it gives you plenty of ownership and the flexibility to make decisions about one of our largest villages. There’s vast opportunity here to develop professionally, and with our village already well-established you can simply focus on running it well.
You’ll benefit from strong management and senior office support, as well as peer support from the other Village Managers across the region. This is an excellent time to be joining Summerset - not only are we growing and investing, we’re the fastest builder of new retirement villages in New Zealand, so for the right person this company is brimming with opportunity.
