Mission Australia

At the heart of Mission Australia is a profound commitment to stand alongside every Australian in need, driven by a vision where everyone has a safe home and the opportunity to thrive. For over 160 years, this national Christian charity has been a beacon of hope, offering real, lasting impact inspired by the teachings of Jesus Christ. The organization's culture is deeply rooted in its core values: respect, compassion, integrity, perseverance, and celebration. These principles guide every action and interaction, fostering a community of dedicated professionals and volunteers who are passionate about making a tangible difference. Mission Australia believes that a person's circumstances should not define their future and that with the right support, everyone can unlock their full potential. This belief fuels their collaborative approach, working with individuals experiencing homelessness or disadvantage to address the root causes of their challenges through innovative, evidence-based support services and access to safe, affordable housing.

The team at Mission Australia is a diverse and inclusive group of over 2,000 staff and thousands of volunteers, all united by a common purpose. From frontline workers in community services to the vital support staff in office roles, each person contributes to a culture of care and dedication. The organization is committed to creating an environment where both employees and the people they serve feel valued and empowered. This is reflected in their recognition as a Best Workplace, with high levels of staff satisfaction and engagement. They are also dedicated to being a child-safe organization with a zero-tolerance policy for harm or abuse. By welcoming and encouraging skilled and compassionate individuals from all walks of life, Mission Australia continues to build a workforce that reflects the diversity of the communities it serves, all while advocating for a fairer nation and striving to end homelessness and create a society where everyone can flourish.
