Trainer Assessor

Motivation Foundation is looking for an energetic, hands-on and passionate Trainer/Mentor to help develop the skills, confidence and employability of young Western Australians.

This is not your typical training role.

We're looking for someone who enjoys working with young people, sharing practical skills, building projects, solving problems and helping others achieve their potential. Whether your background is in civil construction, building trades, plant operations, mechanical, fabrication, maintenance, or a related industry, we'd love to hear from you.

If you're the type of person who can turn practical tasks into learning opportunities and genuinely enjoys seeing young people succeed, this could be the role for you.

Since 2008, Motivation Foundation has been helping young Western Australians develop the skills, behaviours and confidence needed to enter the workforce.

Through nationally recognised training programs and practical, hands-on learning, we support school students and young people who may be disengaged from mainstream education to create meaningful pathways into employment.

Our purpose is simple:

"To educate and develop life and employability skills for individuals and groups from diverse and disadvantaged backgrounds."

Every day we help young people discover what they're capable of and build brighter futures.

Based at our West Swan Training Academy, you will work alongside our training team delivering practical learning experiences that prepare students for employment and further training opportunities.

No two days are the same.

You may be:

• Assisting with Civil Construction training programs

• Supervising students during practical activities and projects

• Delivering selected training units within your area of expertise

• Building, maintaining or improving training resources and projects

• Teaching safe work practices and workplace expectations

• Mentoring young people and supporting their personal development

• Helping students develop employability skills and confidence

• Creating engaging hands-on learning experiences

This role would suit a practical "person of all trades" who enjoys variety and takes pride in passing on their knowledge.

We're interested in finding the right person, not just the right resume.

You will ideally bring:

• Strong practical skills and industry experience

• A positive attitude and willingness to learn

• The ability to connect with and motivate young people

• Excellent communication and teamwork skills

• A genuine desire to develop the next generation workforce

• A proactive, solutions focused approach

• A commitment to safety and professionalism

Experience in one or more of the following would be highly regarded:

• Civil Construction

• Building and Construction

• Mechanical Trades

• Plant/Equipment Operations

• Welding and Fabrication

• Maintenance and Repair

• Landscaping or Earthworks

• Mining Support Services

• General Trade Based Industries

• Current Working with Children Card

• Current National Police Clearance

• Construction White Card

• Relevant industry qualifications and/or demonstrated experience

• Current driver's licence

• Certificate IV in Training and Assessment (TAE40116/TAE40122) or equivalent

• Experience in training, mentoring, coaching or supervising apprentices, trainees or young people

• Civil construction qualifications and plant operation competencies

Don't have all the training qualifications?

If you're the right person, Motivation Foundation is willing to support you in obtaining the necessary training and qualifications.

• Make a genuine difference in young people's lives

• Help shape the future workforce of Western Australia

• Work with a passionate and supportive team

• Diverse and rewarding role with plenty of variety

• Ongoing professional development opportunities

• Purpose driven organisation with a strong community impact

Someone who still gets excited about teaching others.

Someone who enjoys working as part of a team.

Someone who remembers having mentors who gave them a chance and now wants to do the same for the next generation.

If you're practical, enthusiastic, patient and passionate about helping young people succeed, we'd love to hear from you.

We offer a rewarding career opportunity with a range of attractive benefits, including:

• Attractive salary package

• 12% Superannuation

• 6 weeks annual leave, aligned with school holiday periods

• Ongoing professional development opportunities

• Supportive and collaborative team environment

As a registered charity, Motivation Foundation employees can access generous salary packaging benefits, including:
