UnitingCare NSW.ACT has committed to taking on more than 140 new Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander staff over the next 12 months as part of its developed Indigenous Employment Strategy.

This figure represents approximately 2% of the total workforce of UnitingCare NSW.ACT and its Service Groups UnitingCare Ageing, UnitingCare Children’s Services and UnitingCare Children, Young People and Families.

UnitingCare NSW.ACT is a large employer with more that 6500 staff and are committed to creating opportunities for more Indigenous people to join us.

UnitingCare NSW.ACT already employs a large number of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander staff and this Strategy marks the beginning of working to provide more meaningful employment opportunities and career development for existing as well as new staff.

The specific aims of the Strategy are to recruit Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, be the employer of choice in the community services sector and support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander staff to become 2% of the total workforce of UnitingCare NSW.ACT.
