A shortage of skilled workers across Australia is forcing many businesses to look to countries like the UK to bring in help.
Salaries across Western Australia are rocketing; a recent survey by Australia’s Commonwealth Bank showing that the blue-collar workforce in some parts of Western Australia enjoys wages 62pc higher than the national average.Even truck drivers are now getting paid salaries of A$150,000 to A$180,000 (£96,000 to £116,000) with a little training. The more skilled professionals whose experience commands a premium – mining engineers, resource geologists – are in even tighter supply.
Such are the opportunities and wages on offer that it is estimated more than 100,000 Australians have moved to the mining towns. Many work as so-called FIFOs, who “Fly In and Fly Out” for their jobs, and the numbers moving has meant that thousands of vacancies have appeared in the hospitality and catering sector in Perth.
Australia desperately needs skilled workers from the UK to work in the mining, construction and healthcare industries amongst others. If you are interested in a new job and new life in Australia, then make sure you visit Down Under Live, the UK’s number one emigration and recruitment services event, taking place in February 2012. You can meet recruiters and employers, as well as finding out more about a life downunder.
Agreed, what's different about this market is that we're seeing Staffing services take off during the bottom (I hope) of the recession. It's nearly flip from Web 1.0 round where innovation and growth from agencies was found in late 90s as I recall.
