How our employer-led recruitment model works
Partnering with yourtown is about more than filling vacancies. It’s about building a stronger workforce while creating opportunities for young people in your community.
We take the time to understand your business, workplace culture and workforce needs.
We’ll identify suitable young people and support them to get work-ready.
We’ll coordinate referrals, introductions, and interviews.
We support both employers and young people during onboarding and transition into employment.
Support doesn’t stop once employment begins. We’ll continue working alongside you and young people to help create successful long-term outcomes.
Need something more tailored?
For larger or more complex recruitment needs, we can work alongside your business to co-design workforce solutions that meet your specific requirements.
This may include tailored pre-employment programs, industry-specific training, partnerships with Registered Training Organisations (RTOs), and customised pathways that help prepare young people for success in your workplace.
The best workforce solutions are built together.
