Culturally Safe Recruitment for Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Roles

At Be Recruitment Group , we recognise that recruiting for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander identified roles — particularly within Out of Home Care (OOHC) and community services — requires more than a traditional recruitment approach.

It requires cultural understanding, trust, and a commitment to working in partnership with organisations and communities.

We are proud to support organisations across Australia with the recruitment of culturally aligned, values-driven professionals who can deliver safe and effective services to Aboriginal children, young people, and families.

Our Areas of Expertise

We support recruitment across a range of community service programs, including:
  • Out of Home Care (OOHC)
  • Youth Justice & Intensive Support Programs
  • Domestic & Family Violence (DFV) Services
  • Homelessness, AoD & Crisis Accommodation
  • Community Engagement Programs
  • Family Preservation & Early Intervention (e.g. Families Together, CAFS)
  • Refugee & Migrant Services (including CALD and culturally specific programs)

Our Approach to Culturally Safe Recruitment

We understand that how recruitment is done is just as important as who is hired. Our approach is grounded in:
  • Respectful engagement with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander candidates and communities
  • Supporting organisations to design culturally appropriate recruitment processes
  • Ensuring clarity around identified roles and genuine occupational requirements
  • Providing guidance on culturally safe interview and onboarding practices
  • Taking the time to understand community context, program requirements, and service delivery models
We don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach — we work closely with each organisation to ensure recruitment aligns with both operational needs and cultural integrity.

Aboriginal Caseworkers & Practitioners

Our Experience

We have supported a range of recruitment projects across OOHC and community services, including:
  • Recruitment of identified roles within family preservation and early intervention programs
  • Sourcing candidates with lived experience and strong community connection

Through this work, we have developed a strong understanding of the challenges and opportunities within the sector , including workforce shortages, funding changes, and the importance of culturally aligned service delivery.
