Delivering Remote Employment Opportunities in Outback Queensland
Matching job seekers & job makers with care
RESQ+ is responsible for providing employment and community development programs to job seekers and employers in rural and remote communities in Central West and South West Queensland.
The Australian Government influences the strategic direction of RESQ+ through its own objectives via the service contract between RESQ+ and the National Indigenous Australians Agency (NIAA).
Real Support With RESQ+
We offer tailored assistance to address vocational and non-vocational barriers to employment with personalised mentoring and counselling. Our dedicated employment specialists regularly travel to meet with job seekers in the 32 plus communities we service and provide ongoing support.
Matching People to Opportunities
We support job seekers and employers by investing the time needed to truly understand their needs.
Our employment consultants work with each job seeker, mapping an achievable pathway to sustainable and rewarding employment. With individual training, mentoring and support, our participants can grow at their own pace.
We also work closely with businesses across all sectors to find the right people for the right job. You may be eligible to receive financial incentives for recruiting staff through our programs.

The latest insights in employment services
Are you a participant looking for work?
Find sustainable, rewarding employment close to home. We know that, for many job seekers, there can be a lot of barriers to finding the right employment. It might be in the application process — in your resume or interviewing techniques, or it might be that you don’t quite have the right skills or equipment.
RESQ+ takes a compassionate approach to working with you to overcome these barriers and find you employment that suits you.
Find local, upskilled talent
Especially in our regional and remote communities, finding the right talent with the right skill set can be challenging.
