Hybrid Dishwasher bei 2Life Communities

BACKGROUND

At 2Life Communities, our mission is to create opportunities for all older adults to live full lives of connection and purpose in dynamic, supportive environments.   As we evolve to meet the diverse needs of our residents, we invite you to be a part of an exciting new venture.

Within the year will open Opus Newton—a groundbreaking model of community for older adults who fall in between qualifying for subsidized housing and being able to afford the very high-end market offerings.  Set on the JCC Campus in Newton and physically connected to 2Life Community’s Coleman House, Opus Newton will be an inclusive, welcoming community.  A defining, unique element is the focus on volunteering as a community-building tool.  All Opus residents agree to volunteer at least 10 hours/month.  In addition, there are beautifully-landscaped terraces with a cafe, cultural arts and learning spaces, fitness areas, patios, and gardens. Walking trails will link our campus to the JCC, Newton Community Farm, and Nahanton Park.

We are looking for staff who embody the spirit of the Opus community - a culture of inclusivity, warmth, and respect. This is a unique opportunity to help shape Opus Newton into a welcoming and engaging home for all its residents.
