Find Your Next Employee

How Workforce Australia and local employment services can help Redlands employers fill job vacancies.

Looking for your next employee—or planning ahead before a vacancy becomes urgent?

Workforce Australia and local employment and inclusive service providers can help employers connect with candidates, prepare people for work and support them after they start. But knowing who to contact and what assistance is available isn’t always straightforward.

• What assistance may be available for training, licences, tickets, personal protective equipment and wage subsidies, subject to eligibility.

• How inclusive employment services can help you connect with a broader range of local candidates.
• How to build relationships with providers before recruitment becomes urgent.
