Felix finds success on his way to a better future

Felix arrived at APM’s Epping office with a clear goal - he wanted to work.

But chronic pain from intervertebral disc disorder made everyday movement difficult, and without formal qualifications, his options were limited.

Despite these challenges, Felix was determined to build a better future.

Employment Consultant Jordan and Business Manager Robert spent time getting to know Felix and understand his needs.

They saw Felix needed more than just a job and helped him access physiotherapy to ease his pain and improve his mobility.

At the same time, they supported him in enrolling in training for heavy machinery, including dump truck and front-end loader operations.

These new skills opened doors to industries Felix hadn’t considered before.

With his health improving and qualifications in hand, Felix took charge of his job search and secured a casual dump truck operator role with Fusion People.

Soon after, he added a second role with Christies People.

Balancing both jobs gave him valuable experience and financial stability, helping him move closer to long-term employment goals.

Felix is now working towards a higher-paying role with less physical strain - something that better suits his health and future ambitions.

Jordan and Robert continue to support him as he works toward this next chapter.

“Support from APM has helped me to secure employment,” Felix said, reflecting on how far he’s come.

Felix’s story shows what’s possible when determination meets the right support.
