One system that manages every placement, every workflow and every outcome — designed for the AI era.
Institutions report doubling placement capacity without adding headcount.
From dispatch to sign-off — automated end-to-end, no chasing required.
Every placement, document and sign-off lives in one system — forever.
Across faculties, hospitals, schools and workplaces in Australia.
Real-time monitoring across clinical rotations and work placements.
Students, employers, supervisors and faculty — all connected, all in one flow.
We built CareerHive by working alongside the coordinators, nurses and teachers who needed it most — replacing spreadsheets, phone calls and lost paperwork with one system that just works.
Designed and developed by placement managers at 35 Australian universities and RTOs
From university placements to VET apprenticeships, school work experience to clinical rotations — one platform handles it all.
End-to-end placement management for universities running WIL programs across every discipline.
Clinical compliance, logbooks and competency tracking built for Australian healthcare regulation.
Professional experience in schools, with mentor feedback and AITSL-aligned competency tracking.
Community placement management with hours tracking, supervision logs and AASW compliance documentation.
Apprenticeships and industry-based learning managed end-to-end with ASQA-ready reporting.
Subject selection, work experience, curriculum mapping and three-way portals for students, staff and parents.
Students, employers, supervisors and your institution all connected in one flow. Every approval, sign-off and document tracked and timestamped — automatically.
Most institutions lose the evidence of student work the moment a placement ends. CareerHive captures every credential, competency and portfolio piece earned on placement — and keeps it employer-verifiable after graduation.
Every hour logged, competency signed off and assessment completed becomes a verified credential — shareable with future employers via a secure link.
Students upload work samples, reflections and supervisor feedback during placement — curated evidence of workplace capability, not just a transcript entry.
The wallet doesn’t disappear at graduation. Students retain access for 12 months — so they can share evidence during the job search that matters most.
Northbridge Group — Finance Internship, 160 hrs, Distinction. Meridian Partners — Business Analytics Project, 160 hrs, Credit. Both verified, both shareable.

Coordinators, faculty leads and placement teams across Australia.
Coordinating placements for our clients Edith Cowan University and Queensland International Business Academy has reduced our workload by 10–15 hours a week. Glad we migrated to Career Hive in 2025.
We needed a platform that could handle the complexity of international student placements without the admin overhead. CareerHive delivered — our coordinators spend their time on students, not paperwork.
The Auto-Match engine is remarkable. We went from manually matching students to employers over two weeks to having recommendations ready in hours. Our placement rate improved immediately.

Across Australia, thousands of students miss out on placements every year — not because opportunities don't exist, but because the systems managing them can't keep up. CareerHive was built to fix that, permanently.
We are passionate about giving every student the placement experience they actually deserve — not the one a legacy system permits.
Our vision is simple: every student in Australia should have access to meaningful, real-world work experience. Not just the ones at well-resourced institutions with large admin teams — every student. Australia's education providers are world-class in teaching, but when it comes to the operational machinery of work placements — the agreements, the document checks, the supervisor coordination, the reporting — far too many are still held back by systems built for a different era. Our team is dedicated to changing that permanently, so educators can focus on students, not spreadsheets.
Australia's universities have ambition that outpaces their infrastructure. Placement coordinators are exceptional professionals trapped by tools that were never designed for the complexity of modern work-integrated learning.
When a placement falls through because an email was missed, or a student starts without verified prerequisites because the spreadsheet wasn't updated — that's not a people failure. It's a systems failure. And it's exactly why we built CareerHive.
These aren't values written on a wall. They're the decisions we make every day when building CareerHive.
CareerHive wasn't born in a boardroom. It was built out of direct experience watching placement coordinators drown in admin while students waited — sometimes too long.
"We sat with placement managers across Australia and heard the same story over and over — incredible people, completely let down by the tools they were given. Coordinators spending their evenings in spreadsheets, students waiting weeks for approvals that should take hours. That's when we knew CareerHive had to exist — and that our vision had to be bigger than just fixing one institution's pain."
Founded in Melbourne in 2022 and built through deep consultation with over 80 placement managers, CareerHive has grown from a focused solution into the platform powering thousands of placements nationally. Our vision drives every decision: work experience for every student in Australia.
We don't measure success in software features or revenue. We measure it in placements — in the number of students who got real-world experience that shaped their career, because CareerHive made it possible for their institution to deliver it. That number is never big enough until it's every student.
Join the institutions that have replaced spreadsheets, email chains and legacy systems with CareerHive — and never looked back.
Every person on our team has held senior roles inside Australian universities, faculties, and higher education technology teams. We don't guess at your problems — we've spent years working alongside the people who have them.
With over a decade of combined experience inside Australian higher education, we have held senior roles at the country's leading universities, built enterprise platforms scaling to tens of millions of users, and consulted with 80+ placement managers across faculties and RTOs to understand exactly where the system breaks down. We don't theorise about your challenges — we've managed them firsthand. CareerHive is the platform we wished had existed when we were sitting in your seat.
Every member of our leadership team comes from inside higher education or enterprise technology — bringing firsthand understanding of the systems, pressures, and people that make work-integrated learning complex. That background shapes every decision we make.

CareerHive gives your RTO or TAFE one intelligent platform to manage industry placements end to end — from training plan creation and competency mapping to trainer visits, supervisor assessments and ASQA-ready reporting.
Industry placements shouldn't stall
on paperwork, emails and compliance gaps.
Ditch the spreadsheets, lost forms and manual ASQA-chasing.
CareerHive auto-matches students to approved host employers based on qualification, location and industry sector — then maps every placement activity to the relevant units of competency in your Training Package, so assessment evidence builds itself.
CareerHive coordinates the student, host employer supervisor, trainer-assessor and RTO admin in a single connected workflow — with every approval, assessment and compliance record captured automatically and stored against the student for ASQA audits.
CareerHive ships with units of competency pre-loaded across the most common Training Packages — so your coordinators set up once, not for every qualification.
CareerHive is designed to help RTOs and TAFE meet their obligations under the ASQA Standards — with audit-ready documentation generated automatically at every step.
CareerHive integrates with the student management and LMS tools your team already uses — so placement data flows automatically, with no double-entry.
