Indigenous Employment Projects

If you’re interested in hiring a number of Indigenous employees we may be able to run an Indigenous Employment Project (IEP) specific to your business. Projects are designed by us here at Jobfind to include candidate identification, training, work experience and on-the-job support.

So how have our projects proven successful in the past? Read on and find out.

Automotive Industry

On the Central Coast (NSW) we partnered with a number of local training providers to help 13 young Aboriginal people find work in the automotive industry. The participants achieved a Certificate I in Automotive Repairs and are now working in various local businesses as mechanics, electricians and car spray-painters.

Meat Works

Jobfind partnered with a Mackay (QLD) company, Borthwick & Sons, to train local Aboriginal people for jobs in the meat works industry. Participants experienced 4 weeks of on and off the job training before commencing work, with over 40 people completing the training and now in jobs.

Pre-Work Training

In Daly River (Northern Territory), we completed a 6 month course in work preparation with a group of Aboriginal people. The training included setting goals, grooming, OH&S, cultural awareness and work experience. Participants also had the opportunity to complete a Certificate I in Vocational Preparation.
