Who are we looking for?

If you have experience as a great assessor in community services and love being busy then why not consider joining Access Care Network Australia (ACNA), a forward-thinking and innovative not-for-profit organisation.

To help you consider your suitability for this role, we have included the Position Description.  Of course, we want to make sure you are a great fit for the ACNA, so we are looking for people that align with ACNA’s values of supporting people to be their best and always striving to learn, improve and grow. Hiring people whose own values align with ours allows us to build awesome teams of like-minded individuals who are able to create the best outcomes for our clients.

I’m in. What do I do now?

About ACNA

Our charter says…

Access Care Network Australia provides assessment, coordination and case management services to connect eligible people with supports that build on their strengths.

But don’t let the jargon fool you.

We're in business to change lives. 

We do that by helping our clients (and their families) get the support they need to live life their way. 

What does it take to do what we do?

3 things. People. People and people.

First, only hire in the words of clients – “amazing beautiful souls” and never, ever, break that rule! Our recruitment process is unashamedly tough (and our training is even tougher!) because what we do at ACNA is a privilege – not an obligation.  So, we only hire people when we are absolutely confident they’ve got what it takes to make a difference. Think you do?  Then join us!

Something else that is good to know about ACNA – we love all ages and all life stages. If you need a little bit of flexibility and want to be part of a team that bubbles with life experiences, that’s us!

Last of all, you need to measure success in people, not data points. We’re yet to find a data point that captures the life-changing impact of an assessment that gives a daughter’s 92-year-old father the renewed confidence to live independently. But each and every day we get a front row seat to these amazing client stories that remind us all why we’re here (and the life-changing power of really great assessments!).

With all our focus on people you might get the impression we’re anti-technology. Not at all! But in delivering over 400,000 assessments we’ve found technology comes second to the power of conversation.

What makes us tick?

Simple. We want people to be their best.

But at ACNA this isn’t something we just write on a poster: ‘being our best’ is a way of life. It’s our credo. It’s a life-long personal commitment to be…

Always learning

Always growing

Always sharing

Choose ACNA!

We could insert a spiel here demonstrating what a great organisation we are to work for, but instead we invite you to listen to stories from our team in our Podcast and read these quotes from some of our team:

“We worked really well together to come up with solutions that worked for the team rather than working in our own little world. We came up with a joint model that we could all work together to achieve what we needed to achieve - meeting output requirements.”

“Having [the] team work together closely…. it gives you a sense of ownership and pride. It provides the foundation of trust in the team that I am working with. It was definitely a really positive experience for me and something I was glad to be a part of.”

Sure, we work hard and have contractual KPIs to meet, but we also want you to have a great work experience with ACNA and leave us better off than when you arrived through the provision of great learning opportunities and clear connection to the senior leadership team.  

Ready to Apply? Well good news, we have even made it easy!

Simply answer the survey we have created to collect all the necessary information. No letter or response to selection criteria is required, but do be ready to attach your CV

Once you apply we will check your application and then contact you about the next stages of the process. Our recruitment process is a little different to most! We use lots of activities to give you an opportunity to understand the way of working and your typical day. These activities will run in early February 2022. We look forward to welcoming our new team member in late February 2022!
