Overview

Not Just Caretakers pulls back the curtain on one of Australia's most misunderstood industries - Management Rights. Part memoir, part training manual, and part survival guide, this book is honest and surprisingly funny look at life as an onsite manager that no one has ever written... until now. Livia Szikora shares the real stories behind the routines, the leaks, the committee meetings, the midnight emergencies, and the magic moments that make this career unlike any other. With warmth and wit, she reveals what the job really involves, what new managers desperately need to know, and how to not lose your mind (or your sense of humour) in the process. Whether you're thinking of buying Management Rights, already running a complex, or simply curious about what happens behind the scenes, this book offers practical guidance, real-world systems, and a refreshing dose of honesty. It's the handbook every new manager wishes existed - complete with lessons learned, boundaries built, and confidence earned the hard way. From burnout to breakthroughs, daily chaos to community moments, Not Just Caretakers shows that onsite managers aren't just caretakers - they run the whole show. And with the right mindset, systems, and support, this industry can give you a lifestyle, an income, and a sense of purpose you won't find anywhere else.
