About us

At Mylestones, we’re passionate about finding employment for people with disabilities and barriers so they can chase the best in life. We’ve been working with communities for over 25 years, in more than 50 locations across Queensland and Northern New South Wales. Often, employment opportunities for people with disabilities can be limited. But we don’t accept that and we’re passionate about creating inclusive employment opportunities for everyone. How? We do that through our three businesses: Mylestones Employment, Mylestones Solutions and Mylestones Printing. Mylestones Employment supports people with barriers to employment to find a job that’s right for them. Whatever your career ambitions might be, we’d love to help you get there. We also work alongside employers and businesses of every size, to build inclusive workplaces and make sure our job seekers are a good fit for the long term. Mylestones is part of CPL - Choice, Passion, Life, a profit-for-purpose organisation that provides vital support to more than 5,000 people with disabilities across Queensland and northern New South Wales. At Mylestones, our businesses are focused on creating more opportunities for people with barriers and disabilities to find work, earn an income, gain independence, develop new skills and follow their passions. The CPL Group acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia, and we pay our respects to Elders past, present, and emerging. We are committed to honouring Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and their unique cultural and spiritual relationship to land, water, and seas and their rich contribution to society.
