Our Enliven services create age-friendly communities where people are happy and thrive, regardless of their age or ability. Our homes and villages are places where older people have companionship, choice, variety, fun, meaningful activity and a sense of purpose.

Enliven is a not-for-profit service providing aged residential care to older people in the lower half of the North Island. We believe older people should remain connected to their community and live stimulating and fulfilling lives.

- Operate within food hygiene standards and protocols
- Be considerate of residents during mealtimes and ensure their needs are met appropriately

If you are willing and able to pick up additional hours to cover for leave it's always a bonus and much appreciated within the Home. Our kitchen and dining hours do not operate late into the evenings, so it's the perfect hospitality role with hours that enable you to have some work/life balance. No more late nights working while everyone else is socialising

- As a learning organization, you will be provided with full training and support in your role, so you orientate quickly and feel well equipped in your role.
- Enliven may facilitate you in gaining qualifications while you work, so you can develop your skills and career
- Staff Wellbeing activities, focusing on a different aspect of our personal Health and Wellbeing
- Being part of a values based organization means we care for each other; we care about what we do and how we do it
