What your day could look like

As an Operational Services Officer, you'll be part of a close-knit team that keeps the health service running smoothly so clinicians can focus on care and patients feel supported. In a community where people know and value what you do, your work has visible impact—every shift, every day.

Every day, you'll contribute by:

  • Creating clean, safe and welcoming spaces that support healing, comfort and dignity for patients
  • Working alongside healthcare teams to provide practical support that improves patient flow and care delivery
  • Keeping essential services running smoothly, from food and linen to waste and facility upkeep
  • Building trusted relationships with colleagues and community members while adapting to the evolving needs of a regional health service

Let's talk about you!

You're someone who finds purpose in helping others and takes pride in doing the small things well—because you know they make a big difference. You bring a strong sense of responsibility, treat everyone with kindness and respect, and show up ready to contribute, even when the pace changes. You value being part of a team that supports each other and the community, and you want a role where your work truly matters.

Here's what will help you thrive in this role:

  • A current driver's licence and flexibility to work a variety of shifts
  • A strong commitment to safety, hygiene and following procedures
  • Great communication skills and a genuine, helpful approach with people
  • Physical ability to carry out manual tasks safely and confidently

You'll stand out from the crowd if you have experience in healthcare, hospitality or cleaning environments, and enjoy the variety and connection that comes with regional work and lifestyle.

Most importantly, you're someone who values community, takes pride in supporting others, and wants to build a meaningful career where compassion, integrity, dignity, innovation and courage guide what you do every day.
