Do you love to care?

We do! Join HammondCare as a Home Care Worker and be part of an independent, not-for-profit organisation improving the lives of thousands of older people in need.

HammondCare Home Care is currently looking for Carers to join our team in the Nepean / Blue Mountains Region on a Casual basis.

About the role

You'll provide essential, practical care for older people, supporting them to live independently in their own homes and genuinely improving their quality of life. This includes not only day‑to‑day care but also building meaningful relationships and offering companionship. The role requires travel to clients’ homes using your own car (you'll be paid $1.05 per km plus paid travel time).

Being female is recognised as a genuine occupational qualification for this role and is authorised under the applicable Anti-Discrimination/Equal Opportunities legislation, and so we ask that only female applicants apply.

In return for your expertise, we offer:

  • $32.91 to $36.50 per hour, plus paid travel time and $1.05/km reimbursement
  • No experience required with comprehensive paid training and ongoing support
  • Generous salary packaging benefits of up to $15,900 for living expenses and $2,650 for meals and entertainment
  • Career development opportunities with ongoing training and pathways for progression
  • Wellbeing and lifestyle benefits, including Fitness Passport access, Employee Assistance Program (EAP), and the option to purchase additional annual leave

About you

  • You’re a people-person who is patient and solutions-focused
  • You have previous experience in aged or community care, or are looking to start your career in aged care
  • you have a valid Driver’s Licence and access to an insured, reliable car (min. Third Party Property Insurance)
  • Ideally, you'll have a Certificate III in Aged Care or Individual Support. If you're not currently qualified and would like to be, then we can help
  • You'll be flexible around meeting the changing needs of home care clients

About us

We provide expert home care, dementia care and palliative care, regardless of circumstances, beliefs, background or financial situation, led by our not-for-profit, Christian foundations and backed by research and clinical expertise.

So, if you love to care, join us, and make a career move that matters.
