We are seeking an experienced clinical professional to join our Governing Body as a Non-Executive Member and contribute to the organisation's clinical governance and strategic oversight.

This is a governance position rather than an operational management role.

About the Role

As a Non-Executive Governing Body Member, you will:

• Provide independent oversight of clinical governance and quality of care.
• Attend board meetings (approximately one meeting per month).
• Review board papers and governance reports.
• Provide guidance on clinical quality, risk and safety.
• Support compliance with Australian aged care governance requirements.
• Contribute to strategic decision-making as the organisation grows.

Expected commitment is approximately 4 hours per month, with flexibility around meeting times.

We welcome applications from clinicians with experience in aged care, community care or healthcare services, including:

• Registered Nurse (RN)

Retired or semi-retired professionals are warmly encouraged to apply.

Essential Requirements

• Relevant Australian clinical qualification and current or previous professional registration (where applicable).
• Demonstrated clinical experience in aged care, home care, community health, disability or a related healthcare setting.
• Understanding of quality, safety and person-centred care.
• Ability to provide independent judgement and contribute to governance discussions.
• Commitment to ethical practice and good governance.

Desirable

• Previous experience in governance, quality management or leadership.
• Experience serving on a board or committee (not essential).
• Knowledge of Australian aged care legislation, standards or clinical governance frameworks.

What We Offer

• An opportunity to help shape a new organisation from the beginning.
• Flexible commitment suitable for professionals who have reduced clinical hours or are retired.
• Competitive annual board remuneration.
• Professional indemnity and Directors' & Officers' insurance while serving in the role.
• A collaborative governing body committed to improving the quality of home care services for older Australians.
