For Employers
Real Futures works closely with local employers, industry partners, training providers and community organisations to connect suitable candidates with their available roles.
In addition to recommending our aspirants to available roles, we also run a digital jobs board where employers can advertise directly to our pool of candidates.
Our work can also help organisations to meet their Reconciliation Action Plan Indigenous employment aims.
Reach Out Officer (mentors) provide post-placement support and career mentoring to your new employees to ensure their transition into employment is smooth and they reach their potential.
If employers already hire Indigenous staff and would like Culturally informed mentoring and career development, we can provide tailored, individual support to employees.
We can also aid workplaces to be Culturally Safe, inclusive and welcoming to their First Nations employees.

Co-Designed with Community
Real Jobs for Mob has been co-designed with each of the communities we are working within.
Our team hosted roadshows where we sat down with local organisations, employers and community stakeholders to have a yarn about the current state of their job market, where the gaps are and what solutions they felt would be best for their community.
Following these workshops, Real Futures designed tailored Training and Employment Plans for each location, presented these to each group of stakeholders and reaffirmed our commitment to work together to provide a skilled, committed and vibrant Indigenous workforce.
Real Futures will continue to work closely with our local partners and adapt our services to the needs of their communities.
Come and say hello to our team in Perth!
We also have Employment Consultants based in our Geraldton and Carnarvon offices, with outreach to Karratha, Roebourne, Port Hedland, Newman and Bunbury.
