Thanks to a partnership between short and long term staffing solutions business, AWX and Beyond Billabong, eleven young previously unemployed men will commence work in January.

Together with Beyond Billabong, AWX’s First People™ program has successfully secured job placements for this group of newly skilled Indigenous All Stars from Brisbane.

These young Indigenous All Stars have embarked on a rigorous four week course with Beyond Billabong, which is designed to up-skill and prepare individuals for the workforce.
