Y Careers is an innovative new organisation focused on providing meaningful employment opportunities for young people.

About us

Y Careers is an innovative new entity being established by the Y to support young people in gaining exposure, experience and entry level qualifications in the care sector whilst providing the care industry with the opportunity to support and access a pipeline of young people. Our model has been co-designed with and for young people and industry. We know the care sector within Australia urgently requires a pipeline of labour, with care workforces decimated during the pandemic period, and pressures on businesses continuing to increase. It is projected that 250,000 new workers are required in the care sector by 2025, with the demand particularly acute in regional areas. Y Careers aims to provide employment to 15,000 young people over a 5-year period. This will begin in 2024 with 350 young people. Y Careers, along with our partners, will provide training and employment in a holistic approach inclusive of wraparound support to young people across Australia. Our focus will be on ensuring we engage geographically, culturally and diverse young people, including those traditionally marginalised from the labour market and experiencing barriers to employment.
