Job Description
About the Role
Working within our Transition to Work contract, you’ll be on the front line selling potential, opening doors, and creating real job outcomes for young people. This is not a desk bound role it’s about hustle, heart, and follow-through.
But where this role really shines? Employer engagement.
You’ll be the person who won’t take no for an answer, confidently pitching motivated young people to employers, reverse-marketing candidates with limited experience but huge potential. You know how to sell attitude over experience and turn “maybe” into “when can they start?”
You will:
• MOTIVATE, EMPOWER & CHAMPION young people throughout their employment journey
• Actively source job opportunities through cold-calling, networking, and relationship-building with local employers
• Convince employers to give youth a chance — highlighting reliability, eagerness to learn, and cultural fit
• Match participants to vacancies and create opportunities where none existed
• Build strong partnerships with stakeholders and community organisations to unlock pathways to work
• Track outcomes, follow up relentlessly, and celebrate every win — big or small
• Work closely with small groups of young people to build their confidence, strengthen their employability skills, and support their transition into meaningful future pathways
CHAMPION OUR CLIENTS. BE THE PERSON WHO BELIEVES IN THEM — AND SELLS THEIR POTENTIAL — TODAY.
This role is full time, fixed term until 30 June 2027 with the possibility of extension, and requires travel across our Dandenong, Oakleigh and Springvale sites.
