HomeNow is a campaign promoting career pathways in Queensland’s housing and homelessness sector. HomeNow is delivered by sector peak bodies Homelessness Queensland and Q Shelter, under the Workforce Connect Fund, funded by the Queensland Government.
HomeNow showcases the many rich and rewarding career pathways that exist in our unique sector, to attract more dedicated, passionate and skilled people to a sector they may not have previously considered.
The HomeNow campaign consists of a website, videos, social media accounts, appearances at key career and training events, and regular email updates to interested subscribers.
The great thing about working in housing and homelessness is the diverse variety of jobs and pathways available, which welcomes all backgrounds and skill sets. Depending on the specific role you’re interested in, you may not need a qualification or experience. Some frontline or specialist roles may require a certificate, diploma or degree, and there are a variety of pathways available through TAFE and university.
There’s never been a better time to gain a qualification in Community Services at TAFE, with Certificate III, IV and Diplomas offered under the Fee-Free TAFE courses program.
HomeNow isn’t a job search website like Seek or Ethical Jobs. Instead, it promotes the diverse range of career pathways that exist in the housing and homelessness sector in Queensland, and shares stories from real people who work in the sector.
Organisations in the sector can register to be featured on our Opportunities page as a general promotion of their organisation, allowing you to get to know what they do in the sector and explore potential career pathways. Please note there may not be specific roles available at any one time.
HomeNow and the project delivery organisations do not manage and are not responsible for the content of any third-party websites linked on this site. For any specific opportunity enquiries, please contact the listed organisations directly.
The HomeNow website and project is delivered by Q Shelter and Homelessness Queensland under the Workforce Connect Fund. This project is funded through the Workforce Connect Fund, powered by the Queensland Government’s Good people. Good jobs: Queensland Workforce Strategy 2022-2032.
HomeNow acknowledges the Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the traditional custodians of the lands where we live, learn and work.
