Sunrise Health Service Aboriginal Corporation is an Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisation.
The Sunrise Way involves Aboriginal communities taking part in controlling their own health. Everything from financial management and governance, staff selection and service delivery priorities are directed by the organisation's Aboriginal Board and Community Health Committees.
Servicing nine communities spread over 75,000 square kilometres, the Sunrise footprint covers Aboriginal communities that are some of the most disadvantaged in the Territory with some of the most complex health issues. Yet despite this, the ethos and practices of Sunrise Health have it be a leader, both nationally and in the Territory, for both national and Territory performance indicators.

More importantly, you will be responsible for helping to address the impact of over 200 years of extreme marginalisation on our planet's oldest civilisation.
Some of your key responsibilities will include (but will not be limited to):
This is an integral opportunity to work with an organisation that is actively engaged with remote Aboriginal communities to promote their health and wellbeing.
As a champion for social change, you will have an opportunity to directly lead a dedicated team actively engaged in addressing the health care crisis facing Aboriginal communities.
Your dedication will be rewarded with a highly attractive base salary circa $102,921 - $115,267 (with room for negotiation depending on skills and experience) plus super and salary packaging options up to $15,899 per year.
You will also have access to a huge range of other benefits including:
