Careers at RSL Queensland
A Career With Purpose
At RSL Queensland, our people and culture reflect our purpose – to support veterans and their families through care, commemoration and camaraderie.
After more than a century this purpose is as strong as ever. And we’re fulfilling it in ever-evolving ways – like providing life-changing support services, funding world-first research, and using advanced technology to help more veterans in better ways.
We’re a dynamic, not-for-profit organisation delivering innovative programs and initiatives. Whether veterans or their families need employment, emergency financial aid, online health and wellbeing resources or social connection activities, our award-winning services and partner programs deliver real, lasting outcomes.
Powered by Australia’s most successful prize home lottery, we have the resources to reach our ambitious goals. As a member of our team, you’ll have access to advanced technology, skilled co-workers, interesting projects and the opportunity to expand your career.
And most importantly, you’ll be making a real difference in the lives of veterans and their families.
