Meet, Ramya, she is an atWork Australia In-Work Support Coach and she ticks all of these boxes. These are just some of her achievements. Ramya can lean on her skills and experiences gained throughout her professional career to help provide an exceptional service and guidance to her clients.
Ramya has performed multiple roles with atWork Australia. Starting in the Job Coach position and now an In-Work Support Coach, supporting clients to thrive and feel comfortable in their workplace.
“As an In-Work Support Coach, I engage with clients in their workplace to ensure they can maintain their employment and build a successful career. I work with my clients to motivate and encourage them by outlining the benefits employment can have on a person’s life; mentally, physically and financially,” said Ramya.
For an atWork Australia client to be able to achieve their employment goals we need to ensure the workplace is set up correctly to accommodate for their needs. This could include ensuring our clients have the right equipment, the workplace is accessible or even supporting clients to navigate public transport routes to and from work. Additionally, it is equally important our In-Work Support Coaches are there to support the employer, ensuring they’re equipped and backed to be able to support our client. “I maintain regular communication with my clients and their employers. If there are any concerns from either party, I can help resolve the issue and find a positive outcome.” continued Ramya.
Upon reflection on her 4-year journey with atWork Australia, Ramya can recall many memorable moments. However, there is one special memory she holds tightly.
Ramya met this client not long after he had been released from hospital after suffering a heart attack. The client did not have a support network and was sceptical about how he would return to work with his heart condition.
Ramya took it slowly, one step at a time and eventually they were able to secure suitable employment. “I was so happy to be able to support this client to find employment. He had no support and was in a vulnerable situation. I am glad I could be there to support him through this challenging time.” said Ramya.
This is just one example of the impact Ramya has had on her client’s lives. She truly enjoys supporting people to overcome whatever barriers they’re facing in life.
“I love seeing the impact my support has on our clients lives and seeing how happy they’re when they secure a job and the impact it has on their family,” said Ramya, atWork Australia In-Work Support Coach
