Community Bank Fleurieu and Business Victor Harbor Renew Partnership to Champion the Region’s Future Workforce
Community Bank Fleurieu has renewed its Platinum Partnership with Business Victor Harbor (BVH) for the 2026/27 year, securing the naming rights to the Community Bank Fleurieu Future Workforce Awards. The renewed partnership reinforces both organisations’ shared commitment to building long term prosperity, skills and opportunity across the Fleurieu region.
The Future Workforce Awards sit at the heart of BVH’s Workforce Brokerage Program, an initiative under development in partnership with local schools, employers and training providers to connect emerging talent with apprenticeship and traineeship opportunities throughout the region. The awards celebrate the achievements of local apprentices and trainees, giving them a platform to showcase their work and recognising the businesses that invest in developing them.
The partnership between Community Bank Fleurieu and BVH highlights both organisations’ focus on developing long term prosperity for their local communities. As a community bank, Community Bank Fleurieu returns up to 80 per cent of its profits to the communities it serves across Aldinga, Goolwa, Willunga and Victor Harbor, supporting programs that empower individuals, businesses and groups within the region.
“We are thrilled that Community Bank Fleurieu has renewed its Platinum Partnership with Business Victor Harbor. Securing the naming rights to the Community Bank Fleurieu Future Workforce Awards is a natural fit. Together we are excited to celebrate apprentices and trainees across the Fleurieu, connecting local talent with local opportunity and helping our businesses grow the workforce they need,” says Reese Adams, General Manager, Business Victor Harbor.
“This partnership goes to the core of what Business Victor Harbor stands for: backing local business and building a stronger regional economy. Community Bank Fleurieu’s ongoing support adds tremendous value for our members and helps us deliver programs that make a measurable difference across the region,” says Kirsten Pitman, Board President, Business Victor Harbor.
“Community Bank Fleurieu is proud to continue our partnership with Business Victor Harbor. Supporting the Future Workforce Awards allows us to invest directly in the next generation of local talent. As a community bank, we return up to 80 per cent of our profits to the communities we serve, and initiatives like this are exactly why,” says Alison Burr, Company Manager, Community Bank Fleurieu.
Both organisations look forward to delivering the inaugural Community Bank Fleurieu Future Workforce Awards and to continuing to support business excellence, sustainable growth and career pathways across the greater Fleurieu region.
The inaugural Community Bank Fleurieu Future Workforce Awards will be held on Wednesday, 18 November 2026.
