TAL are extremely excited to share recently completion of our new flagship workplace in Melbourne. The 6,300sqm workplace spans 5 floors connected by an internal stair which promotes vertical connection and collaboration. The client floor incorporates state-of-the-art technology, greenery and a sophisticated yet warm material palette to create a professional yet welcoming atmosphere for visitors. A variety of spaces for staff to collaborate, focus, recharge and socialise have been provided while tech-enabled meeting rooms ensure a seamless transition between working from home and within the office. Collaboration spaces are flexible and adaptable, with a lively colour palette introduced to promote creativity and innovation. The use of greenery, natural light and sit to stand workstations promote staff health and wellbeing while kitchen and breakout spaces foster a sense of community and allow staff to come together and connect. TAL engaged a 100% Indigenous owned interior design consultancy to complete this project. Click on the link to the post to watch the video.
Last week, we had the pleasure of hosting the NASCA Sydney Camp – a fun and interactive event aimed at empowering Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander youth. Our volunteers and the kids had an amazing time playing sports and exploring the city of Sydney. It was heartwarming to see many volunteers reconnect with children they met on previous NASCA community trips, making the day even more special. 💛 A huge thank you to the attendees for your energy and enthusiasm and to our community partner NASCA for making this event possible. 🙌

I stumbled into studying Occupational Therapy at university, unsure of where it would take me. My initial attraction to the field stemmed from a desire to create a meaningful impact in their lives of others. I’m also a curious person – and this natural desire to explore and understand the world around me has shaped how I approach my work today. In the Health Services team, we focus on empowering customers to lead healthier lives, while working with our partners to help them achieve their objectives. A key challenge in my role is to support the development, design and delivery of data-driven, evidence-based health programs that create a significant impact at scale. A prime example of this is our SpotChecker campaign, which reached over 4.3 million Australians in 2023/24. Centred around the themes of "Be Informed, Check Yourself, and Take Action," these Health Services programs aim to connect with customers at every stage of their health journey. One of the most rewarding aspects of my work is undoubtedly the partnerships we cultivate between our internal teams, funds and providers. The sense of camaraderie and shared purpose makes every project feel meaningful, knowing that together, we’re helping more Australians receive the necessary support when they need it most.
