HACC Transformation Lead

6 Month Full-Time Contract (Potential Extension to FY27)

Sydney CBD | Hybrid Working

Australia’s in-home aged care system is undergoing one of the most significant reforms in decades.

Following the Royal Commission into Aged Care, the sector is transitioning to a new model designed to help older Australians live independently in their homes for longer. The new Support at Home program, introduced in late 2025, replaces Home Care Packages and Short-Term Restorative Care, with further transition of community support programs expected by 2027.

For providers, this means large-scale transformation across service models, funding structures, workforce capability and operational delivery.

And that’s where this role comes in.

We’re looking for an HACC Transformation Lead to help drive the engine room of this transformation.

The Opportunity

Working within a high-impact transformation office, you will drive and coordinate transformation initiatives across Home and Community Care, ensuring projects deliver measurable outcomes for the organisation, our workforce and ultimately the communities we serve.

You’ll play a pivotal role in identifying opportunities, designing and tracking initiatives, measuring progress and ensuring the transformation delivers real value.

This is an initial 6-month full-time contract, with the potential to extend through to the end of FY27 aligned with broader sector reforms.

What You’ll Be Responsible For

As the HACC Transformation Lead, you will:

• Develop and periodically refresh Uniting Home Care Transformation project pipeline
• Drive the initiative design work, collaborating with project Sponsors, the Home Care Operations and Uniting SMEs
• Develop and execute detailed initiative plans aligned to major transformation milestones
• Develop recommendations for sequencing and prioritisation transformation initiatives across multiple workstreams
• Develop reporting tools to track program performance and identify underperforming initiatives
• Analyse program outcomes and generate insights that inform decision-making
• Validate financial benefits and track operational KPIs of the program
• Engage and influence stakeholders across the organisation, including senior leadership and community care partners
• Monitor workstream risks and implement mitigation strategies
• Ensure compliance with regulatory requirements and evolving industry standards
• Translate complex data and trends into actionable insights and service improvement opportunities

What You Bring

• Bachelor’s degree in business, Healthcare Management, or similar
• 2–3+ years’ experience in analytical, transformation, or program environments
• Strong Excel capability and confidence working with large datasets
• Demonstrated ability to support or lead large-scale organisational change
• Solid project management skills with the ability to manage competing priorities
• A highly analytical mindset with the ability to translate data into insights
• Strong stakeholder engagement and communication skills
• Experience or familiarity with Home and Community Care / Aged Care regulatory environments is desirable but not necessary

Why This Role Matters

The future of aged care in Australia is shifting rapidly. With new funding models, service structures and regulatory expectations being introduced across the sector, organisations must evolve quickly to continue delivering high-quality community care.

This role sits at the heart of that transformation.

You’ll help shape how services are delivered, how teams operate and how we support older Australians to remain connected to their communities and live with dignity at home.

If you’re someone who enjoys working in the engine room of transformation, thrives on data, insights and change, and wants to contribute to meaningful reform in community care, we’d love to hear from you.
