We invest in our people by building rewarding careers, offering training and development opportunities and a values-driven culture where our people can belong and thrive.

About the role

Don’t miss out on one of two flexible casual and part time opportunities to join our passionate and inclusive team at our Derby Aboriginal Short Stay Accommodation as a General Hand, and showcase your pride for delivering a high standard of service, cleanliness, hygiene and comfort to all common areas and facilities of the accommodation service, a residence our clients call ‘home’ whilst they reside there.

  • Proven experience in a similar role such as in commercial, industrial, or domestic cleaning
  • Ability to work with and communicate effectively and sensitively with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people
  • Effective time management skills and the ability to use your initiative
  • A flexible mindset and approach to your work
  • National Police Clearance (obtained within the last six months)

You'll become part of an inclusive, diverse, and welcoming Western Australian organisation passionately committed to making a meaningful impact in the local community. Our MercyCare Promise is focused on ensuring our people are connected and empowered to make a positive difference in the heart of our communities.

As a valued team member, you’ll also enjoy access to:
