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.

- 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.

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.
