About You
You're the kind of person who genuinely enjoys helping others. You can put people at ease, listen without judgement and encourage positive change, even when conversations are challenging. You're kind, patient and positive, but you're also confident enough to ask the difficult questions and provide honest, constructive feedback when it's needed.
You'll be meeting people from all walks of life, often in community settings, so you'll need excellent communication skills and the ability to build trust quickly. You understand that lasting behaviour change isn't always easy, and you're motivated by helping people take those important first steps towards better health.
Behind the scenes, you're incredibly organised. You love a good spreadsheet, colour-coded calendar or well-structured plan, and you take pride in making sure the details are right. Whether it's coordinating team schedules, managing stock and supplies, supporting colleagues, maintaining records or helping keep day-to-day operations running smoothly, you thrive on being the person who keeps everything on track.
