Free $8,000 assistance to help you grow.
One of the Queensland Government’s initiatives to help stimulate job opportunities during the slowdown in the economy has been to create the JobsAssist programme.
The aim of this initiative is to provide assistance to small business employers to sustain or grow their businesses, and help them to retain their employees. Grants worth $8,000 are now available to businesses who meet the criteria. These grants are for the development and implementation of a business plan; to consider to the objectives and desired performance levels of the business and to develop strategies to reach those levels.
MYBRIDGE has been accredited as a suitably experienced consultancy to work with business owners and managers to achieve these aims under the JobsAssist scheme.
In the time frame of approximately two weeks, approval can be gained from the Government to commence Stage 1. Once approval is granted, MYBRIDGE consultants can work to achieve specific and individual outcomes with eligible companies, at no cost to the company. Our consultants are experienced and come from a background with a range of industry experience.
The assistance is carried out in two stages:
Stage 1
A $3,000 grant is available for an initial assessment of the major issues impacting the business. Once these issues are identified an Action Plan can be developed which will provide the necessary strategy to move ahead.
Stage 2
A further $5,000 grant is then available to provide mentoring and monitoring by our consultants to ensure smooth implementation of the Action Plan.
