Job Description:

Collections Officer Care Services | Brisbane

1 x Permanent, Full Time position

1 x Full Time, Fixed Term position- 6 months

St Vincent’s has been a leader in Australia’s health and aged care landscape for more than 165 years. Since our founders, the Sisters of Charity, opened our first hospital in 1857, our services and nearly 30,000 people have been behind some of Australia’s most important medical breakthroughs.

We are a microcosm of Australia’s health and aged care system and are uniquely positioned to lead and respond to our rapidly changing environment.

We are looking for a special kind of person — a St Vincent’s kind of person. Someone who puts excellence, compassion, connection and care for other people at the heart of everything they do.

About the Role

We are seeking a Collections Officer to support the financial sustainability of St Vincent’s Care Services by managing resident and client accounts with professionalism, empathy and integrity.

This role plays a vital part in ensuring aged care revenues are managed ethically and effectively, supporting continuity of care for residents while maintaining strong relationships with residents, families and internal stakeholders. You will balance sound financial stewardship with a compassionate, person‑centred approach, recognising the sensitive circumstances often involved in aged care financial discussions.

Reporting to the Collections Manager, this role operates with a high degree of autonomy and accountability within defined financial delegations.

Please note, the salary for the position is $66,828 per annum plus superannuation.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage assigned resident and estate accounts to support timely, accurate and compliant collection of aged care fees
  • Engage with residents, family members and representatives to resolve outstanding accounts in a respectful and values‑led manner
  • Negotiate and manage payment plans where appropriate, including monitoring compliance and follow‑up
  • Address objections, disputes and sensitive financial conversations with professionalism and sound judgement
  • Identify potential financial risk and assist in proactively managing and reducing aged debt
  • Collaborate with operational, clinical and corporate teams to support effective end‑to‑end billing and collections processes
  • Support reporting and data insights related to collections activity, debts and payment trends as required
  • Maintain accurate records and comply with relevant policies, procedures and regulatory requirements
  • Contribute to continuous improvement of collections practices, ensuring alignment with St Vincent’s mission and values

What You Will Bring

Essential

  • Experience in accounts administration, collections, finance or a related role
  • Strong numeracy skills and attention to detail
  • Well‑developed communication skills, with the ability to navigate sensitive conversations respectfully
  • A person‑centred approach aligned with the values of compassion, dignity and care
  • Strong time management skills with the ability to prioritise and meet deadlines
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office applications and the ability to learn new systems quickly
  • Ability to work both independently and collaboratively within a team environment

Desirable

  • Experience within aged care, health, or a regulated environment
  • Exposure to debt management or collections activities
  • Demonstrated problem‑solving and critical‑thinking skills
  • Ability to build strong relationships with internal and external stakeholders

What Works For You

  • Meaningful work that directly supports the delivery of compassionate aged care
  • Opportunity to make a tangible impact on financial sustainability and resident outcomes
  • Competitive salary packaging options
  • Discounted private health insurance
  • Employee Assistance Program for staff and their families
  • Access to Fitness Passport
  • Supportive, values‑driven workplace culture

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
