The Opportunity

Are you ready to take ownership of a rigorous business development cycle to deliver results which are measured by real community impact?

As a Not-For-Profit community organisation, we are seeking a results-driven, relationship-focused professional to actively drive our growth.

Success in this role relies on more than just great conversations: it requires managing a rigorous pipeline, hitting outreach targets, and successfully converting leads into active employer partnerships.

You will take full ownership of the business development cycle: from identifying prospects and networking, to presenting tailored workforce solutions and securing partnerships with local and national employers.

If you have a talent for BD and want your work to mean something more, this role offers a unique balance. Through succeeding in your role, you will directly help young people in Queensland kick-start meaningful careers as an apprentice and trainee.

Key responsibilities:

Business Development & Employer Engagement

• Proactively identify, approach, and secure new employer partnerships
• Build, manage, and grow an outbound sales pipeline
• Prepare tailored proposals and promotional materials for clients
• Leverage our CRM system to manage your pipeline and ensure you consistently meet quarterly and annual growth targets
• Strengthen established long-term relationships
• Research industry trends and identify opportunities
• Respond to enquiries from employers, apprentices, trainees and stakeholders
• Work collaboratively with internal recruitment and mentoring teams 

who we are looking for

You'll thrive in this role if you:

• You have a proven track record in business development, service sales, or account management
• Are a confident, organised, self-starter who takes ownership of goals and excels in building trusted relationships
• Have a genuine interest in creating youth employment opportunities and a proven ability to grow a network of business relationships

Experience within the apprenticeship, training, recruitment, or workforce solutions industries will be highly regarded.
