Take your next step at the careers fair

Unlock your potential and a future career at the Castlemaine Careers Fair.

Discover career pathways, develop new skills and connect with industry professionals at the first-ever Castlemaine Careers Fair – an interactive event designed to help you take the next step.


The Castlemaine Careers Fair on Wednesday February 19 will be held across four key venues surrounding the Castlemaine Town Hall.


The fair is being hosted by Mount Alexander Shire Council, Workforce Australia, Castlemaine Community House and Goldfields LLEN, and the Midland Express and Castlemaine Mail are proud to be media partners. MainFM will also be broadcasting live from the event.


More than just a jobs expo, this engaging and hands-on event offers practical experiences, expert advice and direct conversations with employers, to give job seekers, students and career changers real insight into the world of work.


With more than 50 organisations participating, attendees can explore diverse career opportunities, connect with local and national employers, and gain the tools they need – whether it’s landing a first job, making a career change or starting a business.


MASC’s manager of economy and culture, Merryn Tinkler, said building on the successes of previous jobs expos, this new format careers fair would offer something even more engaging and include some hands-on experiences.


“The event is designed to inspire and inform, whether you’re a student exploring options, a job seeker looking for opportunities or someone thinking about a career change,” Ms Tinkler said.


“We’re excited to introduce interactive experiences like Coffee with the Boss, hands-on trade skills workshops and expert-led Q&A sessions.”


The Castlemaine Careers Fair runs from 10am to 4pm in the Castlemaine Town Hall precinct (register at the Castlemaine Town Hall foyer). Entry is free. To book your ticket, visit events.humanitix.com/castlemaine-careers-fair-2025
