Work with us

Our team lives by our values of:

  • Humility: To delight in providing noble service in an altruistic manner for the benefit of all with whom we connect.
  • Kindness: With a generous spirit we will nurture relationships with grace and empathy.
  • Respect: We commit to freely offering and affirming the uniqueness of all we encounter.
  • Courage: “Courage is about stretch, it’s about realising that something more or different can be done, developing the determination to do it, and then carrying through despite all obstacles.” 16 Guidelines for Life

Karuna offers opportunities to build on skills and experience in a purpose-driven and community-focused environment.

Work – Life Balance
At Karuna we pride ourselves in ensuring that our staff maintain work-life balance throughout their employment. This includes offering flexible arrangements (dependent on the role).

Salary Packaging
As a charitable organisation, all Karuna staff have access to salary packaging options through RemServ. Salary packaging (also known as ‘salary sacrifice’) is an ATO-permitted employee benefit that lets employees pay for a range of expenses from their salary before tax is deducted, allowing them to potentially reduce their taxable income and boost their take-home pay.
