City of Armadale, Australia Workskil Australia Ltd Full time
About the Role

The Employment Specialist will focus on supporting Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander customers by providing intensive mentoring to ensure their transition into employment is successful and sustained.

This role is being offered on a full-time, ongoing basis and will be based across all our Perth South sites.

You'll also experience the work/life balance that comes with working a 9-day fortnight, with a dedicated and fixed day off every second week.

You will still receive the remuneration of a full-time employee in addition to the ability to salary sacrifice.

This challenging role will be a well-sought-after opportunity.

About You

To be successful in the role, you will be able to demonstrate:

  • Strong interpersonal, written and verbal communication skills.
  • Ability to work effectively with a culturally diverse range of clients, employers, and staff.
  • High level of interpersonal skills with an ability to represent Workskil Australia to our customers, funding bodies, employers, RTOs, Indigenous Communities, and other stakeholders.
  • Sound knowledge of the local labour market.
  • An understanding of case management framework.
  • Sales and customer service experience.
  • Extensive working knowledge of federally funded Employment Programs and funding models.
  • Experience mentoring Indigenous customers in employment.
  • Proven ability to work in an outcome-based, high-pressure environment, positively and with enthusiasm.

You will also be required to have:

  • Ability to use the Microsoft Office suite (Word, Excel, and PowerPoint) and ability to type (minimum 30 words per minute).
  • Certificate IV in Employment Services or Career Development (preferably) or willing to study.
  • Hold a current driver's license and have own vehicle with the willingness to travel across the region.

It would be advantageous for the preferred candidate to identify as Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander or have extensive experience working with customers within this cohort.
