NOURISHING SUCCESS

Empowering Queensland's food industry through mentorship excellence.

As part of our commitment to fostering talent and retaining skilled employees in the Queensland food industry, FIAQ proudly manages a Mentoring Program as part of our exclusive member benefits.

This program connects early- to mid-career professionals with experienced industry leaders who share their wealth of knowledge, insights, and real-world experience gained over years in the food manufacturing sector. By participating, mentees develop valuable skills and confidence, key drivers of job satisfaction and professional growth.

The FIAQ Mentoring Program aims to empower participants with the tools they need to build long, successful careers in the Queensland food industry, contributing to a stronger and more sustainable sector.

Choose Your Mentoring Stream

Mentees can select from three focused streams based on their career aspirations and interests:

  • Stream A: Leadership, Project Management, and Supply Chain
  • Stream B: Food Safety and New Product Development

This exclusive program offers only 10 spots per year, ensuring a tailored and high-quality experience for all participants. Priority will be given to employees of FIAQ member companies. If additional spots are available, eligible applicants from non-member Queensland food manufacturing companies may also be considered.
