BE PART OF SOMETHING

MEANINGFUL

St John WA is underpinned by a strong team spirit and camaraderie with employees and volunteers working together to change lives. It’s this powerful sense of belonging that makes St John WA a place where our people are proud to work.

With over 130+ years of experience, our amazing, dedicated and committed team are legends at what they do. St John WA employs more than 1300 paid staff including paramedics, communications officers, patient transport officers, administration and support employees and first aid trainers.

Our activities are also delivered with the support of more than 4,500 volunteers who donate more than three million hours to the community every year under the St John WA banner. From running the ambulance service to teaching first aid in hundreds of locations around regional WA - each and every one of our staff and volunteers gives an invaluable service to the community.

Our aim is to serve and make a difference to our communities - wherever they are. St John WA has undertaken several international projects and humanitarian missions, providing knowledge, expertise and resources to communities such as East Timor, Zambia and Nepal. Not to mention training over half a million Western Australian school children in first aid, free of charge. No matter which part of the St John team you join, you’ll be part of something truly meaningful. Find out more about these initiatives here.

Mutual respect throughout our diverse teams

The team spirit that pulses throughout is one of the most important benefits of being part of St John WA. There’s a deep understanding across our organisation that to deliver our first aid and ambulance services throughout our State everyone has a role to play. It’s the unique St John WA team spirit that has been created by people proud to be part of something truly big, where every person in our team has an understanding that each and every one of us is part of the whole and we are stronger together.

St John WA is committed to achieving a diverse workforce and strongly encourages applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders, people from culturally diverse backgrounds and people with disabilities.

Growing with St John WA

At St John WA we promote self-learning and development and encourage our people to seek out opportunities for learning.

There are development opportunities to grow you professionally and to keep you at the forefront of the constant changes in technology, equipment and healthcare - we understand that if we all grow individually, we will grow as a team. For our people, that creates the reward of being able to be a life-long learner. For our community, that creates the reassurance of a service that is constantly looking for ways to improve.
