Resort & Hospitality Jobs

Work in some of Australia’s most iconic destinations — the Great Barrier Reef, Uluru, and Tasmania — with staff accommodation included. These placements are ideal for those who want a full cultural immersion surrounded by nature.

Earn $21–$24 CAD/hour for about 25–40 hours per week, with meals and housing provided at a low cost. Positions range from food service to front desk and kitchen support.

Placements typically last 4–6 months, depending on season. Expect to work evenings and weekends during busy tourism periods.

City & Coastal Placements

You’ll receive arrival support, local job introductions, and orientation to help you settle in and explore. Many participants travel after their placement, making this the perfect mix of stability and adventure.
