Gold Coast

Our EPIC Gold Coast team are experts in finding people with disability and mental illness jobs they love. Our teams in Southport, Nerang, Helensvale and Mermaid Beach offer a personalised approach for our job seekers. We take the time to get to know your individual talents, skills and personality. If you need some training to reach your goals, we’ll help you organise it. And when you’re ready, we’ll help you find a job you are proud of.

“The best thing about EPIC is how understanding they have been to me. They have taken the time to understand my history and they know my limitations and my abilities. They always offer me a wide range of options of things for me to do.” – Matthew, Southport

At EPIC we provide the Australian Government’s Disability Employment Services program to support job seekers with disability to reach their potential.

When you connect with our Gold Coast disability employment services, we look forward to helping you:

  • develop and regularly review your personalised Job Plan
  • identify your skill gaps and assist you to enrol in training to diversify and extend your skillset
  • support you to create a great resume, prepare job applications, practise interview skills and attend job interviews
  • connect you with like-minded employers in your area who align with your career goals
  • support you on-the-job in your workplace for as long as you need us – that could be a month, a year or longer.

Our success stories

Our team works hard to match the right person with the right role. We have a number of connections with businesses across the Gold Coast area and strive to place our job seekers in businesses that match their talents and ambitions.

“EPIC meet my needs and their service is great. They check in to see how the client is going and ask for my feedback, they are interested in what the client is doing and whether they are fitting into my business. They also take on any feedback that I give them, they really listen to me.” – Kellie, Nana May’s Skincare
