What’s in it for you? Bupa will pay for and support you to obtain Certificate 3 in Individual Support

We currently have an opportunity to undertake one of our new Carer Traineeship roles at Bupa Aged Care Croydon. You will also have the opportunity to secure a permanent position after you are qualified.

Bupa will support your training, including paying for your education, assessment, and qualification outcome. Upon successful completion of the Traineeship, you will be awarded a Certificate III in Individual Support (Ageing) qualification and potentially an ongoing job as a Carer with Bupa.

The formal training component will be run in conjunction with a valued training partner and will involve a mix of remote based learning (online modules; videos etc.), face to face instruction and on the job assessment. All training will be designed and conducted to reflect the requirements of your new role as a Trainee Carer at Bupa.

Upon completion of the traineeship (up to one year), you may transition into a full-time Carer role within the care home.

As a team member at Bupa Aged Care you will embrace and share our values of being Brave, Caring and Responsible. If you are passionate about aged care, empathetic, and nurturing then one of these opportunities may be perfect for starting your career with Bupa Aged Care.

In order to be eligible, you will need to have valid work rights in Australia and be either an Australian Citizen, a permanent resident or have a visa that is valid for the duration of the traineeship.
