About Co-Hive

Co-Hive is a purpose-driven and fast-growing organisation based in Alexandria, Sydney, dedicated to supporting young adults with disability aged 17–35 as they transition from school to adult life. In just 18 months, Co-Hive has emerged as a game-changing service — winning "Best New Disability Service" at the Australian Disability Service Awards 2024 and gaining national recognition for doing things differently.

We're here to fill a critical gap. Too often, young people with disability leave school full of dreams, but quickly lose direction as they face a system that isn't built for them. Co-Hive is rewriting that story — helping participants build skills, confidence, and independence through hands-on, person-led programs that lead to real outcomes in open employment, social connection, and independent living.

Our model is bold, creative, and grounded in real relationships. We co-design every program with participants and their families and work closely with employers, educators, and community partners to build pathways that truly empower. Our work is guided by the core values of self-determination, inclusion, and possibility.

With strong demand and a growing reputation, Co-Hive is now preparing to expand across NSW and beyond. This is a rare opportunity to join a team at the forefront of change — and help shape the future of an organisation already making a profound difference in people's lives.

The Opportunity

As Co-Hive's Inclusive Employment & Pathways Lead, you will be the driving force behind creating real-world opportunities for our participants. This is a role that blends strategic leadership with hands-on delivery - ensuring every participant has the support, tools, and connections they need to thrive in open employment, further education, and community life.

You will wear two key hats:

• Dedicated Job Coach – placing participants at the centre of every decision, helping them prepare for, secure, and sustain meaningful employment.

• Connector & Innovator – with deep knowledge of each Co-Hive program and participant needs, you will create and implement experiences and opportunities that enhance learning, putting theory into practice.

Based at the Co-Hive Hub, you'll still be out and about - meeting employers, visiting workplaces, hosting excursions and field trips, and building community connections. This is a go-getter role for someone who thrives on variety, has excellent administrative and communication skills, and can juggle multiple stakeholders while delivering measurable impact.

Key Responsibilities

1. Community Connections & Opportunity Creation

• Build and maintain a diverse network of employers, industries, training providers, tertiary institutions, and community organisations.

• Develop and deliver excursions, incursions, industry visits, and work experience opportunities that align with participant goals.

• Work across all Co-Hive programs to create hands-on, real-life learning experiences, enhancing program content and outcomes.

• Research and identify opportunities for participants to explore career pathways, skills training, and further education.

• Leverage your own networks to forge new connections and bring fresh opportunities to Co-Hive.

2. Individual Employment Planning

• Collaborate with participants and their support networks to create Individual Employment Plans tailored to their skills, aspirations, and needs.

• Support participants in developing self-advocacy, confidence, and transferable workplace readiness skills.

• Identify skill gaps and link participants with training, mentoring, or workplace exposure opportunities.

3. Job Coaching & Employment Support

• Match participants to roles that are both suitable and sustainable.

• Support employers with job customisation, workplace adjustments, and onboarding processes.

• Provide ongoing job coaching to help participants maintain and succeed in employment.

• Collaborate with IEA providers, contribute to DES reform initiatives, and share best practice from the Centre of Excellence in Disability Employment.

4. Employer Engagement & Capacity Building

• Partner with employers to create inclusive recruitment pathways.

• Increase employer confidence and capability to hire and retain people with disability.

• Promote wage subsidies and other employer incentives.

5. Program Development & Implementation

• Create and implement new initiatives that expand work experience and employment pathways.

• Document and measure program impact, using data to inform continuous improvement.

• Support facilitators to integrate community connections and industry opportunities into program delivery.

6. Grants & Funding Collaboration

• Identify and support grant applications that expand employment and education opportunities.

• Collaborate with leadership to secure partnerships that grow Co-Hive's reach and impact.

7. Compliance & Reporting

• Maintain accurate records of all activities, risk assessments, and participant outcomes.

• Lead monthly reporting on employment outcomes, employer engagement, and program success.

About You – Skills & Experience

• Strong knowledge of disability and/or employment services (experience with DES, IEA, or related reforms highly desirable).

• Proven ability to engage confidently with multiple stakeholders, keeping them well informed and most importantly, part of the entire process.

• Experience in employment, job coaching, vocational training, or community engagement.

• Exceptional communication and relationship-building skills.

• Initiative, self-motivation, and ability to work autonomously.

• Demonstrated leadership skills, ready to build and lead a future team.

• Driver's licence and own vehicle (travel to worksites and community organisations required).

Why Join Co-Hive?

• Be part of an energetic, values-driven team that's reimagining what's possible for young adults with disability

• Play a key lead role in a fast-growing organisation committed to real, long-term impact

• Work where your contribution directly transforms lives - not just delivers services

• Enjoy above-Award wages, plus Wellness Perks to support your health and balance

• Join a warm, close-knit culture that's collaborative, courageous, and committed to inclusion

• Step into a strategic, high-impact role with strong influence across the organisation

• We're in the final stages of becoming a Public Benevolent Institution (PBI) — once approved, you'll benefit from salary packaging to boost your take-home pay
