Working with us

At Sunnyside House we are more than a workplace - we are a close knit team making a meaningful difference in the lives of people everyday.

We value compassion, respect and community, whether you are a nurse, care worker, support staff or a volunteer, you will find a supportive environment where your skills are valued and your contributions matter.

All paid positions at Sunnyside House entitle employees to the benefits of Not-For-Profit salary packing. It’s a great way to pay less tax by using part of your income to pay for everyday expenses (rent, mortgage, loan repayments etc.) before tax is taken out of your pay. We can offer packaging of up to $15,900 per year for general living expenses plus up to $2650 for meals and entertainment.

If you are interested in any positions, please email jforrest@sunnysidehouse.com.au directly.
