Connect learners to real outcomes. Build industry partnerships. Make an impact.

Our client is a leading RTO delivering qualifications in Disability, Individual Support and Community Services, and they’re looking for a Placement Officer (Community Services) to take ownership of student placements and industry engagement.

This is a critical role — sitting right between students, trainers, and employers — ensuring placements are compliant, meaningful, and lead to real career outcomes.

Why this role stands out

• Full-time role with immediate start

• $88,090 + 12% super

• Up to 2 days WFH (post-probation)

• Develop placement plans aligned to training package and compliance requirements

• Support and monitor students through placements (check-ins, troubleshooting, guidance)

• Ensure all documentation and processes are audit-ready and compliant

• Work closely with trainers and internal teams to drive completion outcomes

What we’re looking for

This is where it gets interesting — we’re open, but you need to bring relevance:

You might be:

• A Trainer & Assessor in Disability / Individual Support / Community Services

• A Vocational Placement Officer (or similar)

• A Training Coordinator / Compliance Officer with strong VET exposure

• Someone already doing the role without the formal title

Key requirements:

• Strong understanding of placements, RTO compliance, and training packages

• Experience working within Individual Support or Community Services

• Confident engaging with students + industry stakeholders

• Highly organised, proactive, and detail-focused

Other essentials

• QLD Blue Card + Police Check

• Driver’s licence (travel to sites 1–2 days per week using company vehicle)

The reality

This is not an admin job — it’s a relationship-driven, compliance-heavy, problem-solving role.

You’ll be juggling students, employers, and compliance requirements daily — but if you get it right, you directly impact completion rates and career outcomes.
