Job Opportunities – Regional Spotlight: Perth

 

Spanning an entire continent, Australia is a huge and varied nation in terms of its climate and culture. From bustling cities and regional centres to tropical beaches and outback adventures, there’s a region to inspire everyone.

Many regional areas in Australia have skills shortages and are actively seeking migrant skilled workers.

To find out more about the employment opportunities for skilled workers in Australia, take a look at Perth :

 

Perth 

Perth, Western Australia’s capital city, is home to 1.5 million people. About 30 percent of the population was born overseas and more than 200 different nationalities call Perth home. With such a large portion of the population born overseas, Perth one of the most culturally diverse cities not only in Australia but also the world. The diverse background of Perth’s residents is reflected in the city’s cafes, bars, and eating establishments, making it a modern cosmopolitan city with an underlying rich cultural heritage. 
 
Perth’s bustling central business district is located on the banks of the Swan River, seven kilometers from the coast. With employment options in many industries accompanied by affordable living costs, excellent amenities and a range of entertainment choices, Perth is a great place to live and work. Approximately three-and-a-half hours flying time from Melbourne and four hours flying time from Sydney, Perth can also be accessed by direct international flights from places such as South Africa, Dubai, Singapore and Hong Kong.
 
Known for its Mediterranean climate, it’s not surprising that there are many outdoor activities to enjoy, including the 400 hectare Kings Park botanical garden. There are public parks, beaches, picnic areas and riverside environments, most of which are free to use. Large venues host many major sporting events including cricket, golf, football, soccer, and tennis. The climate is perfect for activities like windsurfing, swimming, surfing, sailing, horse riding, and bushwalking. With more hours of sunshine than any other Australian capital city, there is also plenty of time to enjoy such outdoor activities.
 
Perth enjoys a rich cultural program of performances from the Western Australian Ballet, the Western Australian Opera, and Western Australian Symphony Orchestra. Perth is also home to traditional and contemporary theatre companies plus many galleries. There are music, theatre, and arts festivals all year round by drawing the best talent from Australia and the overseas. Food and wine shows, sports events, fashion festivals and heritage and wildflower festivals are also hugely popular.

 

Opportunities for Migrants

According to WA State Migration Centre website, Western Australia’s diversified industries and strong economic outlook provide migrants with a broad range of employment and business opportunities. Western Australia has the strongest economic growth in the country. Hosting just 10 percent of Australia’s population, Western Australia is the largest exporter in the nation, accounting for around 35 percent of Australia’s total exports.
 
Widely regarded as the engine-room of the Australian economy, Western Australia has consistently outperformed other state economies for the last decade. The state’s services, technologies, and specialist manufacturing sectors continue to grow, while the traditional strengths of its economy – mining, petroleum, and agriculture – continue to lead exports with products in demand worldwide.
 
These factors, together with employment growth and a low unemployment rate, have created skill shortages across many industries, generating a wide range of jobs available to be filled by migrant workers. Western Australia, from a prosperous mineral, petroleum and agriculture base, has developed thriving industries in business services, technology and specialist manufacturing providing a wide range of business and investment opportunities.
 
Australia is vibrant, in close proximity to the growing market potential of the Asia Pacific region, and is full of exciting possibilities for migrants. With all this good economic news, migrants can expect a better future in Western Australia. To continue investing in big projects, Western Australia needs your skills to get them started and keep them going.
