Your development

Helping you grow as a leader of the future

You'll be given the opportunity to change, transform and grow on a daily basis. From the very beginning you'll be involved in meaningful work across our business. You'll gain exposure to a variety of projects and will have the opportunity to develop critical skills that will make you a true business all-rounder.

During your time with us, you'll experience many development opportunities - both formal and those that arise as a result of your enthusiasm and initiative.

To provide you with maximum exposure, we follow the 70/20/10 rule which involves a combination of formal and informal development methods:

Learn on the job (70 per cent)

Whether you have been involved in volunteer work, striving for your best in your studies or even coaching a sports team, you have been specifically selected as a graduate based on the footprint you have left on the world. Now it's time for you to make your mark at Australia Post. We see your potential as a leader of the future and can help you on that journey by letting you get involved and giving you tangible objectives.

Make connections (20 per cent)

At Australia Post forming solid working relationships is key to your success, so we offer great networking opportunities as part of your development. You'll have opportunities to meet with senior management and be encouraged to ask lots of questions to learn from their rich experiences. You'll also receive ongoing feedback from your manager and participate in a mentor program. For further support, you'll meet alumni graduates who know exactly what it's like to be in your shoes.

Formal training (10 per cent)

Some things are best learnt when taught by others which is why we dedicate a portion of your development to formal training. This includes technical training relevant to your role and full day workshops that focus on developing your soft skills such as effective communication, presentation skills and more.
