Employment Consultant

About the Role

APM is seeking an Employment Consultant for its Devonport site as part of the Inclusive Employment Australia Program. This role is focused on helping people with disability secure meaningful, lasting work that can make a real difference in their lives.

It is suited to someone who enjoys connecting people with opportunities, working with a range of stakeholders, and finding practical ways to help participants succeed in employment.

About APM

APM is a global health and human services organisation that has been changing lives since 1994. With a workforce of around 15,000 people across 11 countries, the organisation supports people of all abilities to live more independently and with greater fulfilment. Team members also benefit from strong career growth and development pathways across a broad international network.

Who You Are

You should be someone who values inclusion and diversity, and believes every person deserves a fair opportunity to succeed. The ideal candidate is confident building relationships, comfortable speaking with stakeholders, and able to turn challenges into workable solutions.

Compassion, empathy, and a genuine desire to create positive long-term change are important for success in this role.

Experience from sales, retail, call centres, hospitality, consulting, business development, or administration may also translate well to this position.

What You’ll Do

You will work with participants with disability to support them in preparing for work, finding suitable employment, and staying in sustainable jobs.

The role involves strengthening confidence, helping people identify their strengths, and supporting them through barriers as they step into new work opportunities.

You will also contribute creative solutions to employment challenges, promote inclusive hiring and workplace adjustments, recognise achievements along the way, and build strong employer partnerships with organisations committed to diversity and inclusion.

Why This Role Stands Out

This is a role for someone who wants more than a desk job. The focus is on breaking down barriers, opening up employment opportunities, and helping people with disability thrive in work.

Additional Benefits and Employment Support

• Attractive salary package with performance-based incentives linked to outcomes
• Training and professional development to support ongoing career growth
• A positive, inclusive team culture where your work has visible impact
• Recognition of milestones and achievements through events and celebrations
• Employee Assistance Program and wellbeing support
• Purchased annual leave option
• Paid parental leave
• Funded Certificate IV in Community Services or Mental Health Peer Support, subject to eligibility
• Service recognition initiatives
• APM Family Hub access
• Vehicle salary packaging through Maxxia

Equal Opportunity Statement

APM values a diverse workforce and is committed to maintaining a workplace where everyone is included, treated fairly, and respected. Applications are encouraged from people of all ages, nationalities, abilities, and cultures, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, the LGBTQI+ community, and people with disability.

What We’re Looking For

If you want a role where every day is different and where you can motivate others, create opportunity, and make a lasting contribution, this position offers that chance.
