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 introduce safe work practices, facilitate daily toolbox talks, track attendance, and ensure smooth day-to-day operations that reflect the needs and interests of the Belyuen community. You’ll also work with local stakeholders to shape meaningful projects and support participants to take steps toward employment. Whether it’s encouraging someone to try something new or helping them show up and give it a go, your leadership will support small, steady steps that make a lasting difference.
