Why JobEdge?

At Jobedge we Progress Together. Progress Together means that every success is only possible if we do it together, whether that means in partnership with our job seekers or internally with our other team members. We work as one, in collaboration to build a culture that leads to better outcomes for all.

Progress Together means we care for the people who care for the people and only then are we able to help those who need our help. Together we are stronger, smarter and more empathetic. Together we can solve all problems. For us, the sum is much, much greater than the parts.

What is our opportunity?

As our Community Engagement Officer, you will be at the forefront of our mission, building partnerships and referral pathways with local business, government agencies and key support services. You will drive sustainable employment opportunities for people with a disability, injury or a health condition, while raising awareness about inclusive employment practices and addressing barriers to employment.

Your experience within Employment Services or related industry will be highly advantageous but is not essential for the role. A qualification such as a Cert IV in Employment Services is also highly regarded, but not an essential requirement.

A valid Police Check and Working with Children Check are mandatory requirements prior to commencement of employment. Successful candidates must set up a myGovID in order to access Government data aligned to role.

Who are you?

We're seeking a dynamic professional with a strong background in community engagement, ideally within Employment Services or similar sector. You have exceptional interpersonal and networking skills, coupled with a genuine passion for creating impactful connections. Your ability to develop and deliver engagement strategies, along with your knowledge of community organisations and employment trends, will make you a standout candidate. Experience working with diverse groups, including individuals with disabilities or culturally and linguistically diverse communities, will be highly regarded.

You must be able to balance empathy, dignity, and respect in your daily work with a drive to ensure we achieve positive business outcomes.

Why join us?

At JobEdge, you'll find more than just a job. We offer the opportunity to make a real impact in people's lives through meaningful and sustainable employment. Our supportive and inclusive workplace culture is something we take pride in.

Our people enjoy a raft of Employee Benefits, including access to career development opportunities, up to 15 weeks of paid parental leave, additional bonus leave days and salary sacrificing for superannuation and to purchase a motor vehicle via the convenience of novated leasing.
