Frequently asked questions

How working with Umoja works, and what to expect.

How does placement work with Umoja?
You tell us the role, the skills and checks it requires, and when you need someone. We identify suitably qualified candidates, complete the applicable screening, and confirm the placement with you before anyone is assigned. You stay in control of who works at your site.
What checks do you complete before placement?
It depends on the role and sector, but typically includes right-to-work verification, a National Police Check, and role-specific requirements such as NDIS Worker Screening, Working With Children Checks, First Aid/CPR, or trade licences and tickets. We confirm which checks apply to your placement before a worker is assigned.
Do you recruit internationally?
International recruitment is one talent-sourcing option we use for Australian employers โ€” not our main purpose. Where local recruitment cannot meet a need, we may identify suitably qualified international candidates, but only where they meet the relevant Australian registration, skills, English-language and visa requirements for the role.
Can you help regional and remote employers?
Yes. We work with employers across Australia, including regional and remote schools, health and aged-care providers, and businesses employing skilled tradespeople, who often face the greatest difficulty accessing suitably qualified staff locally.
Do you guarantee sponsorship, a visa or employment for candidates?
No. Umoja is a recruitment and staffing business. Registration, qualification recognition, visa eligibility and employment decisions are determined by the relevant authorities and employers. An introduction does not guarantee registration, sponsorship, a visa or employment.
How do we get started?
The quickest way is to tell us your workforce need using the Request Staff form on our homepage, or call us directly. We aim to respond within one business day to discuss what you need and how we can help.
