Today, we pause to remember and honour all those who have served our nation, and those who continue to serve. We pay our deepest respects to the Australian and New Zealand service members whose courage, sacrifice and commitment have helped shape the nations we are today.

On ANZAC Day, we reflect on the spirit of service shown by those who stood in times of conflict and peace, often at great personal cost. Their bravery, resilience and dedication remind us of the values of mateship, perseverance and service that continue to guide our communities.

25 April 2026 marks the 111th anniversary of the Gallipoli landings, a moment etched into our shared history, and an opportunity to honour the legacy passed down through generations.

May we never forget the sacrifices made, and may we continue to honour them through remembrance and respect.

Lest we forget.

🌟 Meet the Team | Gavin Moore 🌟

At MRAEL, our people are at the heart of everything we do — and Gavin Moore, our Operations Manager, Apprentice Employment Services (AES), lives and leads by that belief.

Gavin’s career journey spans almost 40 years, shaped by experience in small business ownership, machinery sales, and more than 15 years in the apprenticeship and traineeship sector. Throughout that time, one belief has remained constant: strong communities are built through strong opportunities, and employment can be life‑changing.

That people‑first philosophy is what inspired Gavin to join MRAEL. He saw an organisation with the scale, community values, and purpose to make a genuine difference across Queensland, Australia and New Zealand, as part of the IntoWork Group. It’s a mission that aligns deeply with the kind of leadership Gavin brings — grounded in integrity, strong relationships, and a focus on long‑term outcomes.

In his role, Gavin supports and strengthens our AES teams, builds trusted industry partnerships, and helps grow MRAEL’s market share and community reach throughout South East Queensland. He’s especially passionate about listening — to staff, apprentices, employers and the communities we serve — and about creating clarity and direction that empowers others to succeed, while helping address Australia’s National Skills Shortage.

Outside of work, Gavin enjoys spending Saturday afternoons sailing on Moreton Bay with his local yacht club, and often surprises people with his love of cooking — whether it’s experimenting with exciting new recipes or preparing trusted family favourites ⛵🍽️

We’re proud to have Gavin as part of the MRAEL team and grateful for the experience, care and purpose he brings to supporting the future workforce.

In Queensland, IntoJobs services are delivered by MRAEL, and it’s great to see the positive outcomes that can come from tailored, local support.

Congratulations to Kimberly on her new role with Fulton Hogan.

🔗 Read her full story: https://bit.ly/41m0nKB

When Kimberly came to our office in Rockhampton, she was navigating some tough barriers – unstable housing, a suspended license and no clear path forward. But with small steps and the right support, everything started to change. 📈

Through training, Allied Health support and the EmpowHer program, Kimberly rebuilt her confidence and found a new direction in life. She worked hard to regain her licence, upskill, and put herself in the best position for real opportunities. 🚀

And it paid off – Kimberly is now a full‑time Construction Worker Trainee with Fulton Hogan, helping build the Rockhampton Ring Road. ✨
