Job Description

Lead with purpose. Lead a team. Lead real change.

If you’re an experienced leader in Employment Services, Disability Services, or people‑focused management, this Business Manager role gives you the platform to shape performance, strengthen a team, and create meaningful outcomes for the community.

At APM Warwick QLD, you’ll step into a leadership position where your decisions, coaching and strategic focus directly influence the success of your site — and the futures of the people we support.

Warwick itself is a strong foundation for success: a major regional service centre on the Southern Downs, known for its welcoming community, steady population growth, and diverse local economy. With strong ties to agriculture, manufacturing, retail, health and education, Warwick offers a stable environment for employer partnerships and impactful service delivery. Its blend of regional charm, accessibility and community spirit makes it a place where people want to work, engage and build long‑term stability.

About the Role

As the Business Manager for APM Warwick’s Inclusive Employment Australia team, you’ll lead both people and performance. This is a hands‑on leadership role where you set the tone, drive outcomes, and ensure high‑quality, person‑centred support for job seekers.

You will:

  • Lead, mentor and motivate a team of Employment Consultants

  • Drive strong performance outcomes and uphold service excellence

  • Support job seekers through tailored, person‑centred employment assistance

  • Build and maintain relationships with local employers and community partners

  • Use data, insights and reporting to guide decisions and future planning

Your leadership will be central to the site’s success — operationally, culturally and in the lives of the people we assist.

Why You’re a Great Fit

You’re someone who leads with clarity, empathy and accountability. You understand how to balance people leadership with performance management, and you thrive in environments where your influence is visible.

We’re looking for:

  • Experience in Employment Services or transferable leadership experience from disability, community or people‑focused sectors

  • Demonstrated capability in leading teams or strong exposure to leadership responsibilities

  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills

  • Confidence working autonomously and navigating challenges

  • A track record of achieving performance outcomes

  • Strong stakeholder engagement skills

  • Eligibility to meet Employment Services compliance requirements

What’s in It for You

Your leadership matters — and we invest in it. You’ll enjoy:

  • A competitive base salary + generous performance incentives

  • Salary packaging options

  • Unlimited personal use of a smartphone

  • Access to free counselling and wellbeing services

  • Career pathways across APM’s global network

  • A supportive, inclusive culture where your work has real impact

What You’ll Need

  • Full Australian working rights

  • A current driver’s licence and access to a comprehensively insured vehicle

  • Willingness to undergo a Criminal History Check

  • Ability to obtain a Working with Children Safely Card
