Skills shortages are affecting businesses across South Australia, especially in industries like construction, ICT and engineering.
What you might not know is that there’s a pool of skilled migrants already living in South Australia, that can bring valuable global experience and fresh ideas to your operations, with many simply needing the right connection to a local employer like you.
The Department of State Development’s Skilled Migration Talent and Industry Connection Program can help facilitate these connections.
The program offers free, government-supported services to help small business owners to identify and engage skilled migrant talent to meet their workforce needs.
Delivered through six local partners, the program provides support in recruitment, job matching and onboarding, ensuring a smooth transition into your workplace.
One of the program’s key delivery partners is Community Corporate, a social enterprise specialising in multicultural workforce solutions. Carmen Garcia, the founder of Community Corporate, said that through their new SA Skilled Migrant Job Support Centre, South Australian businesses can receive support to find the skilled talent they need.
