Join a Team of Servant-minded, Purpose-driven Leaders

Independent Living Peoria
At the MorningStar senior living communities, we recognize the power of servant-minded leadership, and we believe it is what drives our success and rapid growth.  Our company was founded on a basic, but profound truth: to honor God in all aspects of our business practices and relationships and to value all seniors as gifted and contributing individuals.  Thus we are committed to creating communities that promote a healthy, engage lifestyle for our residents as well as providing them with the security and independence they need.

While a timeless concept, the term “servant leadership” was first introduced in an essay by Robert K. Greenleaf titled The Servant as Leader, which was published in 1970.  The essay elaborates with the following: “The servant-leader is servant first… It begins with the natural feeling that one wants to serve, to serve first. Then conscious choice brings one to aspire to lead. That person is sharply different from one who is leader first, perhaps because of the need to assuage an unusual power drive or to acquire material possessions…”  Thus the servant-first leader’s priority is to serve others’ needs as opposed to being someone who sees leadership as a way to simply attain material possessions. 

Our Phoenix area MorningStar communities include MorningStar at Arcadia, MorningStar at Arrowhead, MorningStar of Fountain Hills, and MorningStar at Golden Ridge.  Each of our homes has built a team of service professionals who feel called, connected and empowered. These are men and women who understand the importance of investing in our resident-families as well as fellow team members, and have proudly helped us create a loving environment where stories are shared and lives are cherished. 

Currently we are recruiting exceptional individuals with a felt calling to serve to fill a variety of assisted living jobs including housekeeping jobs in our Phoenix communities.  MorningStar is an equal opportunity employer, and we offer competitive wages along with comprehensive benefits.  Also to encourage a healthy work-life balance, we strive to accommodate shift preferences and present predictable schedules.  

Please visit our website’s Career page and follow our link to “Assisted Living Jobs – Phoenix” for the full list of various assisted living jobs, detailed job descriptions, and an online application.  While on our site, we invite you to take a look our Twice the Story video series that showcases the tender relationships that develop between our residents and team members throughout our MorningStar communities.

At MorningStar’s Arcadia, Arrowhead, Fountain Hills & Golden Ridge communities, our unique mission statement: “to honor, to serve, to invest,” sets us apart from other senior living communities.  Our foundation is built on honoring God and valuing all seniors, and we are currently recruiting staff with a felt calling to serve.
