Job Coach - Inclusive Employment Australia - Russell Island/Victoria Point

Inclusive Employment Australia supports individuals with disability, injury, or health condition in preparing for, finding, and maintaining employment.

We believe it's important to get to know our customers and understand their skills and abilities. We focus on what they can do, not what they can't do. 

This allows us to provide tailored support and assistance, helping to find the right employment that suits our customers best.

We don't stop there though! Once our customers are in employment, we continue to be there for them and their employers, maintaining help and support for as long as it's needed. 

You may be a hospitality or retail superstar, a call centre professional or from another service industry all together, but you thrive in a customer- centric role, where you enjoy talking to clients and are self-driven!
