The Olympic Athlete Career Program is an initiative created by the Australian Olympic Committee in partnership with the Adecco Group Australia. It strives to support Olympic athletes in maintaining an appropriate life balance and to make the transition from sport to the workplace.

Athletes in your workforce
The unique backgrounds and capabilities of Olympic athletes can bring a positive edge to your organisation. Olympic athletes are high performing individuals in their chosen sport who are dedicated and motivated to achieve excellence in all aspects of their career. This type of influence within an organisation can have a positive effect on your workforce, adding the following invaluable qualities:

 • Team spirit
• Strong commitment and dedication
• High energy
• Motivated
• Goal oriented

Olympic Athletes
In the world of sport, high demands are placed upon athletes to perform both on and off the field. This emphasises the importance of integrating learning, work and sports performance so that elite athletes can continue to realise their full potential in the workplace. The Adecco Group, in partnership with the Australian Olympic Committee, is on hand to provide the support and guidance required to shape Australia’s newest wave of elite professionals.
