From the Djab wurrung people
AFL SportsReady (AFL SR) has kick-started the careers of approximately 16,000 jobseekers, including over 2,500 Indigenous Australians, and supported hundreds of organisations and businesses right across Australia.
Our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander program, Warumilang, represents the support and opportunities created for Indigenous people through quality education and employment. We focus on strengthening relationships, promoting respect and creating employment and education opportunities for Indigenous people.
AFL SR is a national organisation with a head office located in Melbourne and regional offices in Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Hobart, and Perth. This role will involve a combination of hybrid working from home, regular travel to visit trainees, and office-based days spent at our Moore Park location.
You will play an important part in supporting a case load of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander program participants as well as our host employment partners. You will provide mentoring, cultural and employment related support for young people, and play a key role in engaging with local community on behalf of AFL SR. Although primarily based in Sydney, the role also involves regular travel throughout NSW, and can involve some over-night trips to more regional areas of the State.
A week in the life of this role could involve visiting trainees at workplaces, engaging with host employers to check in on progress, completing necessary administration and notes, and undertaking community engagement and promotion activities. This is a diverse and rewarding role which would suit an organised, resilient and supportive person.
