Barkly Square is more than just a building — it’s a thriving community hub.
Barkly Square Community Hub is a purpose‑driven collaboration designed to support workforce development, education, and community wellbeing.
With BGT Jobs & Training (Ballarat) as Lead Tenant and Centre Manager, the hub operates with strong governance, consistent standards, and integrated management across facilities, tenancy, safety, and community experience.
​Since 1862, the precinct has been a place of learning, today Barkly Square brings together aligned organisations working across training, employment pathways, education, and wellbeing services.
BGT provides the leadership, systems, and operational backbone, enabling partners to focus on delivering high‑impact programs that create measurable employment and community outcomes.
Together, we are strengthening Ballarat’s workforce and community resilience.
