Empowering Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander job seekers with inclusive, encouraging and culturally aware support

Committed to walking alongside Mob, our service not only supports the job seeker but their family and community too. 

Jobfind offers a unique support service to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, based on our reconciliation action plan. 

Our service is holistic – we don’t just look at your employment status. We consider your place within your family and community and your commitments to them, and we work towards employment together.
