Job description

Lead with Purpose – Become the General Manager at Bupa Coburg

At Bupa Coburg, we believe in more than just providing care; we believe in creating an environment where people thrive, both residents and staff alike. Set in the heart of Melbourne, our modern care home offers a serene setting with beautifully landscaped gardens – a place where we nurture lives and foster a sense of community. If you're a passionate, values-driven leader with a heart for making a difference, this is your opportunity to lead a team that brings purpose, compassion, and exceptional care to the lives of our residents.

About the Role: Lead with Integrity and Compassion

As General Manager, you will be at the helm of our Coburg care home, guiding its daily operations with a deep commitment to our Bupa Model of Care. You’ll champion an environment where residents are at the heart of everything we do, and where our team feels supported, inspired, and empowered to deliver outstanding care.

This is not just about managing day-to-day tasks – it's about creating a culture that puts people first, cultivating a workplace where our staff can thrive, and ensuring our residents experience the very best in care. You’ll work closely with a team of dedicated professionals, including clinical leaders and the Regional Manager, to meet business goals while elevating the overall resident experience.

Your Impact: Empower, Lead, and Make a Difference

In this role, you will:

1. Lead with Purpose: Shape the culture of care by empowering your team to deliver outstanding service and build meaningful relationships with residents and families.
2. Shape the Future: Drive strategic business goals while ensuring the highest standards of care, safety, and dignity for every resident.
3. Champion Change: Act as a change leader, guiding the home through continuous improvement initiatives and creating a work environment where innovation and growth are celebrated.
4. Develop Others: Focus on people development through training, coaching, and creating career pathways, ensuring your team not only meets but exceeds their potential.
5. Support and Collaborate: Partner with clinical leaders to minimise clinical risks, ensure compliance, and foster a workplace culture built on collaboration and trust.

What We’re Looking For: A Values-Driven Leader

You are more than a manager – you are a leader who leads with integrity, compassion, and a passion for making a meaningful difference in people’s lives. You bring:

• Proven experience in aged care management or a similar leadership role.
• A people-first mentality, with a strong focus on developing staff and fostering a supportive, empowering environment.
• A deep understanding of service improvement, WHS principles, and experience navigating regulatory environments.
• Exceptional communication skills and emotional intelligence to engage, motivate, and lead your team with empathy.
• A passion for continuous learning, with a commitment to your personal and professional growth – ideally with or working towards a qualification in Health Management or Aged Care.

Why Bupa?

When you join Bupa, you’re not just taking on a job – you’re joining a values-led community. We celebrate diversity and inclusion, and we believe that every person has the right to thrive. Here, you’ll have the opportunity to:

• Shape lives, both residents and your team, with your leadership and vision.
• Receive a competitive salary package with performance bonuses to reward your leadership and impact.
• Enjoy flexible work options, generous leave provisions, and 12 weeks paid parental leave, as well as a range of wellness initiatives to support your well-being.
• Access discounts on health, travel, home, and car insurance, plus 35% off at Bupa Optical stores and 10% off at Bupa Dental clinics.
• Be part of a culture of growth, learning, and support, where we are invested in your professional development and career progression.
