The SA Local Buying Foundation is excited to announce its sponsorship of the UniHub Spencer Gulf 2025 Careers Roadshow under the Sponsorship of Business Awards, Conferences, and Events funding category. This initiative is an innovative step toward strengthening workforce development across regional South Australia, aligning with the Foundation’s commitment to fostering thriving, empowered communities and a future-ready workforce.
The 2025 Careers Roadshow will visit key areas, including the District of Mount Remarkable, Port Augusta, Port Pirie, Roxby Downs, and—for the first time—Whyalla. This expansion builds on the success of the 2024 roadshows, offering even greater reach and impact.
The Careers Roadshows are vibrant, interactive events connecting school students, job seekers, and career changers with career pathways, higher education, training, and employment opportunities. The roadshows bring together a diverse group of exhibitors, including local and national employers, universities, training providers, and government organisations. These events allow businesses to connect with the local community, showcase their capabilities to industry peers and stakeholders, strengthen their brand within the region, and gain insights into the emerging local talent pool. Beyond recruitment, the Careers Roadshows play a vital role in regional development. By bridging the gap between employers and the future workforce, these events contribute to building resilient, sustainable communities.
“Events like these showcase the possibilities available in regional South Australia, helping individuals chart their future while giving businesses a chance to connect directly with local talent,” said Cody Girdwood, LBF Project Officer. “By supporting the Careers Roadshow, we’re helping to build a workforce that will drive our regional economies forward.”
