Volunteer Secretary Position – Legal Professional Sought

The Árpád Elderly Welfare Society Inc. is inviting applications for the volunteer role of Secretary on the Committee of Management for the Árpád Aged Care Facility – Wantirna, Victoria.

We are particularly seeking an individual with:

  • A law degree or legal qualifications
  • Experience in governance, regulatory compliance, or corporate secretarial duties
  • Strong attention to detail and organisational skills

The Secretary plays a key role in ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements, managing meeting documentation, supporting decision-making processes, and safeguarding the Society’s legal and ethical obligations.

Additional Skills and Desirable Attributes:

Applicants with knowledge of governance principles such as those taught in the Australian Institute of Company Directors (AICD) Company Directors Course (CDC) will be highly regarded.

Experience in the aged care sector and familiarity with the Aged Care Act 2024 and Strengthened Aged Care Quality Standards is also desirable, given the regulated environment in which we operate.

Furthermore, a connection to Hungarian heritage, culture, or the Hungarian community is valued, as Árpád Aged Care is dedicated to preserving and celebrating this cultural legacy for our residents and their families.

Prior governance experience is desirable but not essential. Training, mentoring, and professional development opportunities will be provided to the successful candidate.

How to Apply:

To express your interest, please email com@arpadagedcare.com.au for more information or to arrange a discussion.

We value diversity and encourage applications from people of all backgrounds.
