Our Team

Given the number of different businesses in town from farming, tourism, hospitality, building and construction and many more, it is vital to train the community so that they still live and work and be with family. This is important for the members of our community.

Having a passion for employment and training gave me 14 years experience as a Senior Field Officer with KGT Employment and recently moving into the role of General Manager. During my time as a Senior Field Officer, it was a great experience to watch apprentices and trainees gain skills that they could go on to use in the future. Many of the apprentices I had the pleasure of working with have either gone on to bigger and better things or have now got their own businesses in the trades they studied in especially in their own communities.

Assisting young people find a place to start their pathway in life is rewarding and hopeful.

I work as KGT Employment's Finance Officer. I have been working with KGT since 2006, when I started doing finance work for them in my role with Wunan Foundation. All my life I have been a staunch supporter of Australian small businesses and farmers. I am in awe of the richness and resilience of Indigenous Culture. I like working at KGT because my job blends those two things together.

A Trade gives you good strong foundations for life. I like that KGT focusses on supporting young people to achieve their goals and finding their place do to this as well as supporting small businesses at the same time.

I enjoy working with an organisation and team of people who are passionate about helping others improve their own lives and that of their families.

From systems and policy reviews to claiming available funding and day-to-day administration duties, my role as Business Support Officer with KGT Employment supports the wonderful team at KGT Employment behind the scenes.

I fell in love with Kununurra 17 years ago and have lived here since. I enjoy spending time outdoors in the bush, by a waterhole or the river.
