We were recently acknowledged for our work culture and awarded as one of the winners of Xref Engage’s Best Workplace Awards for 2026.Â
Our work is important, but we also understand the value of personal time. We offer additional leave and flexible work arrangements to help support a healthy work-life balance, and we are incredibly proud to be a family-friendly employer.
As an organisation that aims to work toward to a healthier Australia, we are committed to fostering a culture that values the emotional, mental, and physical wellbeing of its staff. We also provide our staff members with access to an Employee Assistance Program.
We want to ensure that our people have the skills and knowledge they need in their roles, while also identifying future opportunities to support development, training and learning.
We value our team members, who bring so much passion to their roles. This is why we offer generous, above-award salaries to attract the best candidates.
We offer not-for-profit salary sacrificing arrangements. This means team members can package up to $15,600 to cover general living expenses and up to $2,560 for meals and entertainment expenses from their gross salary. Depending on individual circumstances, this can reduce taxable income and potentially increase take-home pay.
Our award-winning work culture is one where people are valued and recognised for their unique strengths, where they are supported to thrive and be well, and where they gain a sense of meaning from working together to create change.
