Delivering the Future (Neurodiverse) Geospatial Workforce

Description

Australian Spatial Analytics (ASA) Talent Services is a recruitment offering that goes beyond placing talented candidates with Geospatial Council of Australia (GCA) members. It addresses your need for long-term and sustainable workforce development in the geospatial profession, which is facing severe skills shortages.

ASA differs from traditional recruitment as they focus on professionally and personally developing young neurodivergent adults, providing comprehensive on-the-job training on real-world projects to prepare them for success with your organisation.

This includes ensuring a smooth employment transition with ongoing support for candidates and inclusive partners, such as the Department of Resources (Queensland) and Acciona Engineering and Design. This enables ASA and our partner clients to secure needed talent and create enormous social impact, as this position is backfilled with junior neurodivergent staff, who face a 34% unemployment rate in Australia. 

Presenters: Samantha Garbutt, Chief People Officer, Australian Spatial Analytics (ASA); Stephen de Groot, Data Analyst, ASA; Tiarna Templeton, Data Analyst, ASA.
