Job Description
This is a hands‑on role where no two days are the same—from welcoming new residents and building vibrant residential life programs, to rolling up your sleeves with room refreshes or minor maintenance when needed.
Based at our Bunbury Village and reporting to the Operations Manager, you will have full responsibility for the village in their absence and will often work independently. You’ll be the heart of the community, the first point of contact for residents, and the driving force behind engagement, wellbeing, and a strong sense of belonging.
If you’re someone who enjoys ownership, flexibility, and being deeply involved in both people and place—this role is for you.
At the core of this role is community. You will shape the resident experience through strong relationships, engaging programs, and a supportive environment that helps students thrive academically, socially, and personally.
