About the Role

Ironbark Aboriginal Corporation is looking for a Community Projects Supervisor to help build real world, work ready skills with job seekers in Belyuen. This is a practical, hands on role where you’ll work alongside participants, guiding them through tasks that build confidence and introduce different job skills. You’ll help establish simple daily routines, support practical learning, and contribute to projects that improve the local community. The focus is on creating meaningful activities that promote long term employment pathways. A commitment to cultural awareness and inclusivity is crucial as you motivate and supervise participants from diverse backgrounds across various skill areas.

You’ll run basic daily toolbox talks, keep track of attendance, and ensure the team is working safely and steadily. You’ll also connect with local stakeholders to identify project opportunities that give participants a chance to gain experience and build their confidence.

Whether it’s showing someone how to complete a task or helping them turn up and give it a go, your work will be all about encouraging small steps that lead to lasting employment outcomes.
