Our Stadium, Our Jobs Volunteer Sign up


Make sure Townsville gets its fair share!

Townsville is currently facing some of the highest unemployment rates in the country. The closure of Queensland Nickel earlier this year and redundancies across the region have put significant pressure on working people and their families, local businesses and the broader community.

All three levels of government have committed to build a new stadium in Townsville. This is our opportunity to boost our local economy and our local community.

That’s why we need to ensure that Townsville get it’s fair share of work from the stadium project, with mandatory minimums for jobs and content from our local region.

Will you volunteer?
