Medical Centre jobs in Aldinga Beach SA

Chiropractic Assistant & Receptionist

*McLaren Vale Chiropractic Centre | McLaren Vale, SA*

Love natural health, love people and want to make a difference in your community?

We’re looking for an enthusiastic, caring and proactive person to join our team at McLaren Vale Chiropractic Centre!

We believe great healthcare is about more than treating symptoms. It’s about building relationships, supporting people to live healthier lives and creating a stronger, healthier community.

We’re looking for someone who genuinely shares that philosophy — someone who brings positive energy to the workplace, loves connecting with people and wants to be part of something meaningful.

Our clinic is a welcoming, family-friendly environment, with plenty of little ones visiting and a much-loved office dog. If you love people, babies and dogs, you’ll feel right at home!

What you'll be doing

This is a varied, people-focused role where no two days are quite the same. You’ll be the welcoming face of our clinic, helping everything run smoothly behind the scenes while ensuring our patients feel cared for from the moment they walk through the door.

Your responsibilities will include:

* Welcoming patients and creating a warm, friendly and professional first impression.
* Managing a busy front desk, answering phones and coordinating appointments.
* Processing payments and completing invoices accurately.
* Supporting the chiropractors and wider team to keep the day running smoothly.
* Taking initiative, anticipating what needs doing and finding ways to improve the patient experience.
* Keeping the clinic organised, professional and welcoming.
* Helping us build relationships with our community and deliver an exceptional patient experience.
* Potentially contributing to our social media presence, including Instagram content and stories.

The kind of person we're looking for

We're looking for someone whose attitude and personality are just as important as their skills.

You'll ideally be someone who:

* Genuinely loves natural health, wellness and helping people.
* Is energetic, friendly and brings positive energy to the workplace.
* Is confident managing a busy front desk and juggling competing priorities.
* Is organised, detail-oriented and takes pride in getting invoices and payments right.
* Shows initiative and doesn't need to be told every little thing that needs doing.
* Is reliable, accountable and follows through on commitments.
* Communicates confidently and makes people feel welcome and valued.
* Enjoys working with families and is comfortable around babies and young children.
* Is comfortable around dogs — we have an office dog who is part of our clinic family!
* Works well independently while contributing positively to a team.

Bonus points if you have a creative side! If you enjoy Instagram, creating reels, taking photos or making engaging social media content, we'd love to hear about it. You could have the opportunity to help us showcase our clinic, share health education and connect with more people in our community.

Previous reception, administration or customer service experience is highly regarded. Experience in healthcare or an interest in natural health is a bonus.

The practical details

* *Hours:* Negotiable, with shifts generally falling between 8 am–12 pm and 3 pm–7 pm.
* *Pay:* In line with the applicable medical receptionist award and relevant classification.
* *Training:* Initial training and ongoing support are provided. We want you to feel confident in your role and continue developing your skills.
* *Location:* McLaren Vale, South Australia.

Why join us?

You'll be part of a community-focused clinic where relationships matter, people come first and the work we do has a positive impact on people's lives.

This is an opportunity to be more than the person behind the desk. You'll play an important role in shaping the patient experience, supporting our team and helping our clinic continue to serve the McLaren Vale community.

If you're someone who lights up around people, believes in the value of natural health, loves a family-friendly environment and enjoys taking pride in what you do, we'd love to meet you!
