About the Role

As an Administration Officer with the Aged Care Assessment Service (ACAS), you’ll play a key role in supporting our executive, team leaders, and dedicated statewide workforce. You’ll be the friendly first point of contact for enquiries, managing referrals, processing assessments, and helping older Australians and their families navigate the My Aged Care system with care and confidence.

Most importantly, you’ll bring warmth, professionalism, and a genuine commitment to helping older people access the care and services they need.

About You

You are a proactive and organised professional who thrives in a dynamic environment and takes pride in delivering exceptional customer service. With strong technical skills and a collaborative approach, you are motivated to contribute to a team that supports older Australians in accessing the care and services they need.

To succeed in this role, you will bring:

• Relevant training and qualifications – completion of the My Aged Care Self-Paced Learning Experience (SPLE) or My Aged Care Learning (MAClearning) Administration Certificate.

• Strong technical and administrative skills – proficiency in My Aged Care, Microsoft Outlook, Word and Excel, with the ability to manage data accurately across multiple systems.

• Excellent organisational and communication abilities – able to prioritise tasks, meet KPIs, handle sensitive information, and provide high-quality customer service across diverse communities.

• A collaborative and adaptable approach – effective team player who demonstrates initiative, supports change, respects cultural diversity, and contributes to a safe, inclusive, and ethical workplace.
