About Us
Mob Up was established in 2023 through a collaborative partnership with Shari Eggmolesse, a proud Bigambul and Gurang woman and Harness Energy Group.
Shari’s success in her role as the Senior Indigenous Mentor for Harness’s Indigenous Careers Program, has lead to Harness making a significant investment in her passion for creating meaningful employment opportunities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. From this shared passion and commitment to supporting the advancement of Indigenous communities through employment and training opportunities, Mob Up was birthed.
Mob Up’s core business focuses on providing the necessary tools and support to ensure the economic and social advancement of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Individuals and communities. We plan to achieve this by supporting Indigenous job seekers in their career advancement.
