Interested in working for the department but not wanting to move to Canberra? Then this may be the role you have been looking for. This is not a standard ‘desk’ job.

Your role will operate within the remit of the existing Local Jobs Program. As an Employment Facilitator, you will bring together key stakeholders including employers, employment services providers, education and training organisations to work collaboratively to address the challenges and opportunities in the local labour market.

Along with a dedicated Support Officer, you will establish and work with a local taskforce to identify regional jobs and skills priorities and work to achieve them.

You will need to understand and facilitate access to the supports and opportunities that different levels of government provide to help people build skills and move into employment. You may need to bring these supports together, identify any gaps and find collaborative solutions to them. You will play a key role in helping the community access dedicated funding to address national and local priorities.

As an Employment Facilitator you will:

- Work with communities to support the transition of workers currently in emissions-intensive roles to other opportunities, connect local people with skills and training opportunities and understand the unique support that would benefit the community.
- Engage with and support the work of the national net zero economy agency, and later the national net zero authority.
- In collaboration, support the employment priorities of the region by building and sustaining productive and collaborative working relationships with employment service providers, training and industry peak body organisations, employers, community organisations and education providers to maximise support for all job seekers.
- Support the employment priorities of the region by building and sustaining productive and collaborative working relationships with employment service providers, training and industry peak body organisations, employers, community organisations and education providers to maximise support for all job seekers.
- Drive engagement and discussion between Australian government agencies, state, council and community-based organisations to understand what the community needs so they can deliver effective employment and skills initiatives.
- Based on your understanding of community needs, provide advice and inform policy development so that government initiatives work for and make a practical difference to those who need it.

**How to Apply**
- Tell us in less than 500 words why you are the right person for this opportunity. Tell us what you can offer and how your skills and experience will help you deliver this role. We want to know who you are, and why this job is right for you and the region. Showcase your skills, knowledge, and experiences and why they are relevant to the role. Try not to duplicate information that can already be found in your resume but do highlight any specific examples or achievements that can demonstrate your ability to perform the role.
- Tell us in less than 200 words about a time when you helped different stakeholders work together and collaborate to achieve a positive outcome for your region. This can be in any field, schools, health, business, environment it doesn’t have to be an employment example.
- In less than 300 words outline your community network, including the contact details of any key people in the community that you have a relationship with. Please be aware that we may contact these people to get a sense of how you are perceived within the community. If you do not have an established community network in the region, demonstrate your ability to quickly establish and maintain a community network.
