Indigenous Workforce Opportunities
WorkPac partners with Indigenous-owned organisations such as JobTrail to assist Indigenous employees with all aspects of their employment. JobTrail provides support and links to the local community and Traditional Owner Groups.
In partnering with JobTrail, we create an enabler for the breakdown of common barriers which are faced when sourcing, selecting, employing and training Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples across Australia.
To this end, JobTrail is much more than a recruitment provider. Their team has carefully designed a suite of services that encompass the full life-cycle of training and employment.
