Experience that you will never have at home!

Australia offers the opportunity for young people from many countries traveling on an working holiday visa <<>>to live and work in the country for a whole year.

During a Work and Travel holiday you develop an insight into the everyday life of Australians, make new friends, see landscapes other people only dream about and learn about the country, its traditions and culture.

A variety of jobs...

The variety of jobs and the demand for working holiday-makers is much greater in rural and regional areas than in the metropolitan areas of Australia.

Jobs include work in the agricultural sector (fruit-picking, wineries), fishing, harvesting pearls, tourism (working on campsites or in hotels, interpreting, ballooning, tour guide, entertainment), cuisine (bar tending, kitchen aids and chefs, casino staff), construction, volunteer conservation work and office jobs, as well as the exciting and demanding life and work on an outback cattle station.

JOB Australia, through its network of registered Australian companies, ranging from small family operated specialist businesses through to large corporate enterprises has an extensive and current database of job opportunities for working holiday makers all over Australia in regional areas extending from South Australia through to Cairns and Darwin in the far north and Broome in the north-west of the country as well as in the major cities.
