About the Role

Do you love creating, designing and bringing ideas to life?

We’re looking for a creative and hands-on supervisor who can inspire others to learn, create and build confidence through technology-based projects.

As the Project Supervisor, you will lead participants through practical learning experiences using equipment and software such as 3D printers, laser engravers, sublimation printers, Cricut machines, Canva and Adobe Creative Suite. Through these projects, you will help participants develop valuable workplace skills, creativity, confidence and pathways toward employment.

This is not an IT support role.

We are seeking someone who enjoys making things, solving creative problems and teaching others. You may come from a background in graphic design, digital media, creative technologies, signage, print production, fabrication, makerspaces, industrial design, visual arts, promotional products or a related field.

Success in this role comes from balancing technical expertise with strong people skills. You will be equally comfortable designing a project, operating equipment, mentoring participants, building relationships and creating a positive learning environment where people feel supported to succeed.

If you are innovative, adaptable, community-minded and passionate about helping others grow while sharing your creative and technical skills, we would love to hear from you.

What You Will Do

Working within the Remote Australia Employment Services (RAES) program, you will:

• Lead and supervise participants in a safe, supportive and engaging learning environment.
• Deliver hands-on projects using creative technologies and digital design tools.
• Teach participants how to use equipment including 3D printers, laser engravers, sublimation printers, Cricut machines and other digital fabrication technologies.
• Support participants to develop skills in Canva, Adobe Creative Suite and other design software.
• Encourage creativity, innovation, problem-solving and practical workplace skills.
• Adapt learning activities to suit participants with varying abilities, experience levels and learning styles.
• Build participant confidence and support progression toward employment and personal goals.
• Plan and coordinate engaging projects that are meaningful, culturally appropriate and aligned to community and labour market opportunities.
• Maintain participant attendance records, case notes and program documentation.
• Build positive relationships with participants, employers, community members and key stakeholders.
• Contribute to community engagement activities and the ongoing development of the program.
• Ensure activities are delivered safely and in accordance with organisational policies and workplace health and safety requirements.

We Are Looking for Someone Who Has

• Demonstrated experience in graphic design, creative technologies, digital media, fabrication, makerspaces, signage, print production, visual arts, product design or a related field.
• Practical experience using equipment such as 3D printers, laser engravers, sublimation printers, Cricut machines or similar creative technology and fabrication equipment.
• Strong experience using Canva, Adobe Creative Suite or other digital design software.
• The ability to teach, demonstrate and troubleshoot creative technology equipment and software.
• Experience mentoring, training, facilitating or supporting people to develop new skills.
• A genuine passion for helping people build confidence, capability and pathways to employment.
• Strong facilitation, communication and relationship-building skills.
• The ability to engage and motivate people from diverse backgrounds and with varying levels of experience.
• Excellent organisational skills and the ability to manage projects, resources and reporting requirements.
• A creative, adaptable and solutions-focused mindset.
• A commitment to maintaining professional boundaries and creating safe, inclusive and culturally respectful learning environments.
• Experience working with Aboriginal communities, employment services, training programs, community projects or participant-focused programs will be highly regarded.
• A current Driver’s Licence and the ability to travel within the service region.
• The ability to obtain and maintain a National Police Clearance and Working with Children Clearance (Ochre Card).

In return for your skills and valued contribution you will be rewarded with:

• Salary and Benefits: Generous remuneration package including 5 weeks annual leave with 17.5% leave loading
• NFP Salary Packaging: Save tax and increase your take home pay by salary packaging your everyday living expenses and bills (up to $15,900) and meal entertainment (up to $2,650) per annum.
