BEST Employment Ltd. (BEST) is a community based, not-for-profit company that has been instrumental in changing lives for over 35 years (as BEST Employment since 1997). BESTs Vision is "to see our community (particularly those most disadvantaged) independent and free from disadvantage." Our passionate and skilled staff work very hard to achieve this vision, delivering high quality services that empower thousands of people each year to address employment, mental health, training and other welfare related needs. Our vast range of programs and services target people with disability, job seekers, employers, Indigenous community members and youth at risk. BEST’s service delivery platform extends throughout the New England Northwest regions of New South Wales and the Darling Downs region of Southern Queensland. We also operate a full production and retail Nursery in Inverell. As a dynamic Company based in regional Australia, BEST understands the challenges and vulnerabilities faced by rural communities. We actively pursue projects and collaborative partnerships that result in innovative solutions aimed at overcoming these challenges thereby building a more resilient and sustainable community. Our status as a Public Benevolent Institution and registered charity with Deductable Gift Recipient (DGR) assists us in this process, and keep our focus on projects that support the most disadvantaged and impoverished sectors of our community.
