THE Apprenticeship Factory and Monarch Personnel are two vital organisations shaping the future of the region’s workforce. They offer tailored recruitment and apprenticeship solutions for both local businesses and job seekers in our region, creating opportunities for both employment and training, meeting the evolving needs of industry.
With over 40 years of experience as a community-based, not-for-profit organisation, The Apprenticeship Factory has helped over 7,000 young people bridge the gap between education and employment through supported apprenticeship and traineeship pathways. By nurturing the next generation of skilled workers and allowing host businesses to focus on what they do best, the organisation plays a critical role in the local economy.
Two staff members, Natalie and Melissa, work daily supporting and mentoring Apprentices and Trainees, whilst also working closely with industry and local businesses to support their needs. Behind the scenes, dedicated and professional office staff, Tracy and Tash, give ongoing support with all things administration, including payroll ensuring everything runs smoothly within the office environment.
Together, these women exemplify the values of efficiency, care and integrity, making a lasting impact on both their workplaces and the wider Shepparton community.
Sharing her thoughts on her team’s commitment, professionalism and dedication, CEO Paula Ryan said, “Our team is a small but effective team and I’m incredibly proud of the way in which they support, care and guide many young people in our community. Their genuine care ensures individuals have the best opportunity to complete their qualification and be successful in their chosen career. I’m privileged to work alongside such a committed team who continue to deliver positive outcomes and make a difference every day.”
