With Head office located in Five Dock, what truly sets TLC apart is not just nutrition and compliance — it’s care. Care for dignity. Care for independence. Care for doing the small things exceptionally well for people who matter.

You’ll work closely with Client Services Team Leaders and the broader business to ensure every interaction reflects TLC’s high service standards — balancing efficiency, conversion and commercial outcomes with empathy, care and compassion.
