We’re a growing, values-led organisation with a strong focus on our residents, their families and our team. When you join Respect, you become part of a supportive community that thrives on collaboration, trust and the shared belief that everyone deserves to feel valued. 

If you’re looking for an organisation that invests in its people, celebrates purpose, and offers meaningful career pathways, you’ll feel right at home with us. 

Why You Will Love Working With Us 

• A workplace culture that celebrates people, progress, and purpose 
• Meaningful work where you see the impact you make every day 
• Opportunities to grow your career

About the Role 

Set in the warm, down-to-earth community of Mareeba, life here is all about practicality, sunshine, and genuine connection. It’s not a fast-paced city—expect hot days, a close-knit community, and a slower lifestyle outside of work. In return, you’ll find space to breathe, affordable living, and a grounded environment where people support each other and value the work you do.

We are currently seeking a compassionate and dedicated Registered Nurse to join our warm and supportive aged care team. In this role, you will play a key part in delivering high-quality clinical care while supporting residents to live with dignity, comfort, and respect. This is hands-on, meaningful nursing where relationships matter, and your impact is felt every day. Availability for night duty and weekends is preferred, and in return, you’ll gain valuable experience, strong team support, and the opportunity to truly make a difference.

No two days are the same! As Registered Nurse, you will: 

• Deliver safe, evidence-based nursing care to residents
• Undertake clinical assessments and develop care plans
• Administer medications and monitor treatment outcomes
• Lead and support care staff to ensure best practice care delivery
• Liaise with residents, families, and allied health professionals
• Maintain accurate clinical documentation and compliance standards
• Respond to changes in residents’ health and escalate where required

About You 

You’ll thrive with us if you have:

• Current registration with AHPRA as a Registered Nurse
• Demonstrated experience in aged care or a similar clinical setting (desirable)
• Strong clinical assessment and critical thinking skills
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
• A compassionate, resident-centred approach to care
• Ability to work both independently and as part of a team
• Knowledge of aged care standards and compliance requirements
• Current National Police Check/NDIS (or willingness to obtain)

Perks & Benefits 

• As a not-for-profit you can reduce your tax by salary packaging up to $15,900 per year for living expenses, bills, rent, mortgage and groceries. Take advantage of a further $2,650 to pay for meals out or holiday accommodation 
• Training and development pathways 
• Supportive leaders who are onsite
• A friendly, down-to-earth workplace 
• Opportunity to build a long-term career in aged care
