Ability Enterprises

Who we are

Ability Enterprises is a not-for-profit, social enterprise providing meaningful employment opportunities to marginalised individuals living in regional Queensland.

Since 2012, we have worked alongside more than 400 people facing barriers to employment. From the beginning, we have capitalised on our strong reputation to foster meaningful partnerships. Organisations and businesses we work with include Toowoomba Regional Council, Carers Queensland, QIC Toowoomba, Lockyer Valley Regional Council, QBuild, Newlands and Masterhire.

Today, our social enterprises collectively employ just under 90 people and operations span across waste management, hospitality, maintenance, administration and cleaning industries. 

What we do

We provide a social enterprise vehicle for people facing barriers to employment.

Through strategic community and corporate partnerships, we provide a social enterprise vehicle to support individuals living with mental illness, people living with a disability, refugees and Indigenous Australians. All employees are paid full award wages.

At Ability Enterprises, we nurture a workplace environment where everyone feels respected, valued and supported.

Our people work across waste management, hospitality, maintenance, administration and cleaning industries, delivering a high standard of service.

We place a high value on workplace diversity and pride ourselves on fostering a business culture that offers support, flexible working conditions and additional, personalised assistance.
