Transforming Lives, One Job at a Time.

Since we first got started in 2003, we set out not to be your usual “employment agency”, we are a whole lot more! Sure, we work with people to build the skills and the confidence needed to get good jobs. But in doing that, we support people on this journey, to unlock something deeper within. Whether that something is as seemingly simple as greater self-esteem, or as elusive as a career in the field they have always wanted. StepUp is not just about jobs – we are about the sense of hope, the power of overcoming your past, and the joy of a new beginning, when one person’s power and abilities are in full effect.

Our History
