As the Operations Manager I am responsible for the overall operational functions of the day to day service delivery in Toowoomba. I am proud to be a part of the organisations leadership team. A key aspect of my role is to ensure services provided are focused on client needs. At Toowoomba Community Care we pride ourselves in delivering high quality care focused on client needs.
