Beacon Laundry isn’t your regular workplace. Being different is something we really pride ourselves on and embrace. We’re a jobs-focused social enterprise and our end goal is to create an awesome workplace for people from all backgrounds, while delivering a premium laundry services that keeps the local hotels, motels and accommodation suppliers coming back for more.
So, what makes us different?
- We give a sheet! We’re a purpose driven business so we reinvest our profits back into things that matter – our people, our workplace, and preserving our planet so it can be here long after we’re gone.
- Our people come first. A key point of difference between a regular employer and a social enterprise is what we call ‘wrap around supports’. Essentially this is side-by-side support provided in the workplace for all our employees who need it. It can be different things to different people, and could include counselling, case management, transport assistance, flexible working arrangements and additional training and development. In short, you come first, and the job fits around you.
- We’re big on community. This isn’t a clock-in, clock-out type of environment. When you work at Beacon Laundry, you’re part of a community – we celebrate diversity and milestones, we respect and learn from each other, and we have a laugh.
- We embrace diversity. Beacon is an equal opportunity employer. If you apply for a job with us, you’ll be considered for employment without regard to race, colour, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, mental health challenge or any other characteristic.

We’re here to help you get back in the employment game. And when you’re ready, we help you move into a great mainstream workplace.
