About Us
Kinyara Health is a business with a unique mission: to keep personal, local care alive for ageing Australians and people living with disability - helping individuals find their forever home care within one of our remarkable, community-founded brands across New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia.
In the face of significant industry reform, we've doubled down on this commitment. As a result, Kinyara has grown at pace - expanding into the hearts and homes of more Australians, while staying true to the local care that defines us.
Our growing group operates through a distinctive service model, where long-established community businesses (some with legacies of up to 45 years) have their histories and connections honoured. These local teams are supported by shared services and a technology-forward approach that strengthens consistency and sustainability - without ever compromising client experience or community connection.
Through growth and transition, we remain deeply anchored to our purpose, quality standards and culture - creating an environment that attracts thoughtful, capable people who are motivated to do meaningful work and make a genuine impact.
About The Role
Join our team and become a trusted guide for older Australians and their families as they navigate the Support at Home journey.
As an Intake Specialist, you'll be the first meaningful point of contact for prospective clients, helping them understand their options, utilise their funding effectively and confidently take the next step towards receiving personalised care at home.
This role combines relationship-building, education and growth. You'll spend most of your time in the community, meeting clients in their homes across Melbourne's North and West, building trust, understanding their goals and creating tailored care solutions that support their independence, dignity and wellbeing.
Working closely with our Growth and Operations teams, you'll ensure every client receives a seamless experience from initial enquiry through to service commencement. You'll play a critical role in helping clients feel informed, empowered and in control of their care journey from day one.
