Opportunities to work in Outback Australia!
Have you been made redundant as the result of COVID 19 and / or maybe you would like to have a change in career? Perhaps you could be a school or uni leaver also looking for a solution to earn money and travel at the same time.
Once that Trans Tasman bubble opens up there are opportunities in Australia on offer. I can now offer a 5 day orientation and assessment, followed by a career option in Outback Australia, with support!
Programmes designed particularly for Aussies and Kiwis. and cover the following
areas;
• General Farm Work
• Developing your Farming Career in Australia
• Working with Horses in Australia
• Skilled Trade Workers
• Farm Au-Pair and Cook
What's involved?
The programme supplies a 5 day introductory programme in South East Queensland to prepare you for work in Outback Australia, ensuring that the essential skills are covered, and giving an accurate assessment to the future employer.
Your profile is then created and linked with an appropriate rural employer. And there are around 2,000 of them with around 60 jobs per week.
Once a job has been accepted, support continues to be offered so alternative employment can be sourced if required.
This programme is a great solution for those who want to travel AND work AND be paid.
This is an excellent option for:
• country kids wanting outside practical experience
• school leavers wanting a career path
• career changers looking for something exciting and interesting
• tradies wanting a guaranteed job
And for people leaving home for the first time, there is the full back up service so that the parents know where they are and that someone is looking out for them.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
