THE FRASER Coast Industry & Careers Showcase is back for its fifth year in 2025, with exhibitor registrations now open.
Organised by Jobs Fraser Coast, the event continues to be a vital platform for students and jobseekers to explore career pathways and training opportunities.
Minister for Finance, Trade, Employment and Training, Ros Bates, highlighted its importance amid the region’s growing job market.
“By 2027–28, it is projected that there will be more than 137,400 people employed in this region – that’s an additional 4,613 workers since 2023–24,” Minister Bates said.
“Events like this connect jobseekers directly with local employers across key industries like health care, manufacturing and construction—filling jobs and marking the start of exciting careers.”
Michelle Hay, Chair of Jobs Fraser Coast, described the showcase as a key driver for workforce development.
“The connections forged here are invaluable for both jobseekers and employers alike, contributing to the long-term prosperity of the Fraser Coast,” she said.
“This event is all about building discovery, connection and tangible outcomes that will shape the future workforce of our region.”
Attendees can explore industries including manufacturing, health, timber and agriculture, defence, emergency services, hospitality, and education.
Interactive exhibits and training institutions will offer hands-on experiences and career guidance.
Project Manager Kirsty Hill encouraged businesses to get involved.
“We’re thrilled to welcome back our loyal exhibitors and invite new businesses to join us,” she said.
“By stepping up as an exhibitor, businesses can engage directly with a motivated and local talent pool while showcasing themselves as a leading employer of choice.”
