Why work in Northern Queensland?

Escape the rat race and come join us in Northern Queensland. Not convinced? Have a look at our top five reasons for making the move to paradise.

1. The weather

We enjoy on average 300 days of sunshine a year and don’t worry about packing a jumper- Winter up here means sunshine and 25 degree days.

2. The traffic

There is none! The majority of our staff live within a 20-minute drive to work and all our offices have convenient parking.

3. The laid-back lifestyle

Time moves a little bit more slowly in this corner of Australia, and you’ll find the locals to be relaxed, laid back and friendly.

4. The cost of living

Buying a house or renting in Regional Queensland is extremely affordable. The median house price in Townsville where our head office is located is $350,000.

5. Natural wonders

Our offices are sandwiched between World Heritage Listed Rainforest and The Great Barrier Reef. Spend your spare time snorkelling some of the best reefs in the world, explore tropical islands, catch a Barramundi or discover secret waterfalls.
