Culturally Safe Recruitment for Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Roles

At Be Recruitment Group, we formally acknowledge the unique position of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the First Australians and custodians of the land. We also recognise that recruiting for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander identified roles – particularly within Out of Home Care (OOHC), Domestic & Family Violence, Mental Health 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, individuals, 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.

We partner with organisations to recruit across a range of identified and culturally specific roles, including:

Aboriginal Caseworkers & Practitioners

Our Experience

  • Recruitment of identified roles within family preservation and early intervention programs
