This industry-driven campaign, led by SAFPA, is supported by the South Australian Government’s Wood Fibre and Timber Industry Masterplan, and is about planning for the future and attracting talent to the industry and the regions.
Wood Work is an online tool showcasing the broad diversity of career pathways and job options within the forest and timber industries, ranging from forest management, to harvest and haulage, saw and wood production through to corporate services.
Forest industries are building our nation and with growing investment in new processing facilities, it’s an industry that requires skilled, technologically-savvy and environmentally-driven professionals, and the Wood Work campaign will showcase how to find a career with a diversity of pathways while contributing to a greener, cleaner future by producing the ultimate renewable product – timber.
South Australia’s Limestone Coast is fast becoming the nation’s hub of forestry innovation with the Wood Work campaign designed to inform and attract job seekers about the multitude of forest industries jobs and careers.
The City of Mount Gambier will be decorated in ‘This is Wood Work’ branding, from billboards on the main street, to the back of buses, adverts in the newspaper, on radio and on social media, reaching the core demographic of school leavers and young people looking for meaningful, stable career options.
People are the future of the forest industries, and Wood Work is SAFPA’s commitment to future proofing South Australia’s forest and timber sector.
