Help keep our residents' home safe, welcoming and running smoothly

At Menarock LIFE, we believe aged care is about people, connection and creating places where residents feel comfortable, respected and at home.

We're looking for a reliable and hands-on Maintenance Officer to join our team at Willowbrae Templestowe. This is more than a maintenance role. Every repair completed, garden tidied, room refreshed or problem solved helps create a safe and comfortable environment for the people who call our residence home.

As our Maintenance Officer, you'll be responsible for the day-to-day upkeep of the residence, helping ensure everything runs smoothly for residents, visitors and staff.

Working closely with the leadership and care teams, you'll tackle a variety of maintenance tasks, coordinate contractors when needed, and help identify improvements before issues arise.

No two days are exactly the same, making this an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys variety, problem-solving and working independently.
