About the Role
Join RSPCA Queensland as an Adoption and Rehoming Officer, where compassion and connection are at the heart of everything you do. You’ll be part of a dedicated team helping people and animals find their perfect match - guiding families through adoption journeys and supporting pet owners with empathy and understanding.
This is a dynamic role that blends customer service, animal care and problem-solving. Every day is different - one moment you’ll be counselling a potential adopter, the next you’ll be helping an animal start a new chapter. You’ll stay calm under pressure, think on your feet, and always lead with kindness to create positive experiences for both people and pets.
What We’re Looking For
We’re looking for someone who thrives in a people-focused environment - someone who can balance heart and head in equal measure. You’re the kind of person who can stay calm and composed in busy moments, think on your feet, and communicate with clarity and care. You build trust easily, adapt quickly, and bring warmth to every interaction - whether that’s with a teammate, a customer, or a wagging tail.
