These roles are integral to supporting the cultural wellbeing and career development of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander employees across the organisation, ensuring an inclusive and supportive workplace environment.

About the Role

The Indigenous Mentor and Community Liaison Officers will provide onboarding, mentoring, and cultural support to Indigenous employees through our Indigenous Mentoring and Career Pathways Development Program. Your role will focus on supporting employees’ professional growth, career development, and personal resilience. This will be achieved through regular support interactions, cultural wellbeing activities, and by connecting team members with relevant services both internally and externally. 

You will play a key part in fostering strong, culturally respectful relationships with Indigenous communities and stakeholders, while actively supporting Sodexo Australia’s Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) and broader Indigenous engagement initiatives. 

Key Responsibilities 

Mentoring: 

  • Provide cultural wellbeing support and mentoring to Indigenous employees. 
  • Facilitate onboarding and career development and encourage participation in training and development opportunities. 
  • Conduct site visits to engage with mentees and support them through the mentoring program lifecycle. 
  • Maintain accurate records and confidential documentation related to program delivery.

Community Liaison: 

  • Foster and strengthen relationships with Traditional Owners, Custodians, Indigenous Enterprises, and communities. 
  • Identify programs and initiatives aligned with partnership opportunities for collaboration between Sodexo leaders, teams, and communities in which we serve. 

 

To be successful in this role, you will have: 

  • Senior Secondary Certificate of Education required; qualifications in Human Services or Indigenous Community Health and Wellbeing are desirable.
  • Demonstrated understanding and lived experience of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures, including engagement with Elders, Land Councils and Community‑controlled Organisations.
  • Experience in mentoring, community engagement, and/or program management, with the ability to work in diverse and fast‑paced environments and manage multiple priorities.
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills, with a proven ability to build trust and rapport with Indigenous team members, communities and internal stakeholders.
  • Provide cultural guidance and advice to ensure cultural protocols are understood and respected, including facilitating cultural immersions and cultural awareness workshops.
  • Support and promote community‑based initiatives aligned to the Indigenous Employment and Retention Strategy and Reconciliation Action Plan, collaborating with internal stakeholders and the Indigenous Affairs team to drive outcomes.

Additional Requirements: 

  • Police clearance will be required. 
  • Experience working in the Energy and Resources (Mining) industry is highly desirable. 
  • Knowledge of integrated services delivery (e.g., food services, site catering, and village environments) is beneficial. 

Why Join Sodexo?

  • Competitive pay and job security in an essential services industry
  • Meals provided
  • Access to 100+ retail discounts and multiple salary packaging options
  • Great teamwork and a solid group of people around you!
