Do you have a passion for people and a natural flair for energising, growing and developing teams to deliver personalised customer experiences in unique and innovative ways?

We would love to speak with you.

Scalabrini Village Ltd is a not for profit residential aged care provider founded in 1968. Since formation, our mission has remained steadfast in providing outstanding care for the elderly and those living with dementia.

As a not-for-profit organisation we always put our residents’ needs first. Because we aren’t driven by profit maximisation, we are able to continuously invest back into the business to deliver authentic care that respects the individual for who they are as a person. As a forward looking organisation, we are always looking for new and innovative ways of doing things.

Our reputation as a quality provider helps us attract and retain excellent people, dedicated and passionate in making a difference. It is in our best interest to reciprocate their commitment and loyalty by investing in their wellbeing and development. As our people flourish, so does Scalabrini.

We at Scalabrini are on the hunt for a brilliant Village Manager with a special edge. Someone who won’t be satisfied with just any solution. Someone who can cut through the noise and get the job done. Someone who can lead people to do great things in both good and difficult times.

Welcome to Scalabrini. We are proud to serve over 700 residents across 6 aged care villages.
