⭐ Friday Job Drop | Ashgrove, QLD
Turn Timber Skills Into a Trade.

If you’re already working with timber and tools and want to shape that experience into a long‑term career, this 2nd Year Cabinetmaking Apprenticeship is a strong next step. Based in Ashgrove, this role suits an apprentice who’s ready to build confidence, refine technique and learn proper cabinetmaking in a real workshop environment.

You’ll be joining a team known for high‑end custom cabinetry, built‑ins and bespoke joinery, where quality, precision and attention to detail genuinely matter. This isn’t factory‑line work or flat‑pack assembly — it’s hands‑on craftsmanship from the workshop floor through to installation on residential and commercial projects.

As you continue working toward trade qualification, you’ll gain valuable experience across the full build process while earning as you learn. With exposure to real projects, guidance from experienced tradespeople and ongoing support from MRAEL, this opportunity is ideal for an apprentice who takes pride in their work and wants to qualify with skills they can back.

When Kimberly came to our office in Rockhampton, she was navigating some tough barriers – unstable housing, a suspended license and no clear path forward. But with small steps and the right support, everything started to change. 📈

Through training, Allied Health support and the EmpowHer program, Kimberly rebuilt her confidence and found a new direction in life. She worked hard to regain her licence, upskill, and put herself in the best position for real opportunities. 🚀

And it paid off – Kimberly is now a full‑time Construction Worker Trainee with Fulton Hogan, helping build the Rockhampton Ring Road. ✨

We’re excited to share the story of Sabine Jamieson, whose passion for the arts and commitment to learning has set her on an extraordinary path.

When Sabine was offered a curator cadetship at Mosman Art Gallery — the first program of its kind in New South Wales, delivered by MRAEL (part of the IntoWork Australia Group) in partnership with Mosman Gallery — she described it as a defining and transformative moment in her life.
With a background in art school, Sabine discovered that her true interest lay not in creating her own work, but in uplifting the creative voices of others. Before the cadetship, she worked casual roles in galleries and customer‑facing positions, but hadn’t yet considered curating as a real career pathway. The cadetship opened that door.

Sabine’s passion lies in exploring how artists communicate their stories, experiences and identities through art — and how art encourages deeper understanding and empathy. This perspective has shaped her approach to curatorial work and her growing confidence in the field.

Her dedication has already been recognised through a Dean’s List Honor Award, acknowledging her academic excellence and commitment to her studies. Sabine is currently curating her first exhibition at Mosman Art Gallery — a milestone she describes as surreal and deeply affirming, made even more meaningful because it features the artist she has admired throughout her studies.

As part of her degree, Sabine also spent two weeks in China and Taiwan, where she connected with local art communities, learned from peers and educators, and gained firsthand cultural perspectives. It was her first time travelling solo and left a lasting impact on both her personal and academic development.

Sabine’s journey shows the power of creating accessible pathways for emerging talent — and how meaningful support can help someone step into a future they once only imagined.

We’re incredibly proud of Sabine and honoured to support her as her career continues to grow.
