HOME CLEANING FOR LINK
Our team of cleaners help with light cleaning and housework to help our wide range of aged and disability clients live well at home. A clean home is important to everyone's Health and Wellbeing. Our clients' physical challenges shouldn't stop them having pride and comfort in where they live, and the joy of living in a healthy space.
Our Home Cleaner team adds to our diverse workforce of social workers, support staff, assisted transport drivers, and volunteer drivers and carers to help us deliver care in community that meets the needs of Victoria's older and disabled residents.
Home cleaners work closely with the LINK Operations Team to have clear instructions on where they need to be, and what they need to do. They work in accordance with procedures to deliver safe, effective, supportive and responsive services.
You will be part of a great team that looks after each other, and looks after people in community.
ABOUT YOU
Finding people who match our culture is really important to us.
Our clients come from a variety of different cultural and linguistic backgrounds and if you do too, that’s of great value to us.
The more diversity we have in our teams, the better we can engage and support the community we serve. This helps us provide services in preferred languages and in a culturally sensitive way. Our team already has over 25 different languages to help us work with our clients.
We are looking to build a happy team that is with us for the long term. As full time or casual employee, we don’t mind if you want to work part-time, or are engaged in further study. Please apply regardless so we can start the conversation. We have flexibility to work with great people.
You will be assigned to work in a specific area which will ideally be close to your own home, but may need to be flexible from time to time.
