Our client is a Community Services organisation that delivers innovative employment and training solutions through state and federal government funded programs.

With the aim of improving the skills, confidence and employment outcomes of disadvantaged individuals, the organisation builds confidence and capability in its clients through inspiration, empowerment, and the delivery of exceptional customer service.

With a commitment to customer choice, coupled with a collegiate approach across the business, this organisation creates new possibilities for its clients and ultimately changes the lives of people who face considerable challenges every day.
