Australia has one of the highest minimum wages in the world – currently AUD $23.23 per hour or AUD $882.80 per week. The cost of living in Australia can be high, especially in the bigger cities. However, particularly if you’re willing to do a stint of regional farm work or bar work where you’re busy working at weekends and evenings – then it’s more than enough to live off and still save up to fund the next leg of your journey.

Why you need it

Why you need it

Finding a working holiday job can take time and persistence, especially when you’re in a new country with un-familiar employment rules and lots of shiny distractions. Like beaches, happy hours and the new Swedish arrivals in the dorm next door. Plus, all that time you’re procrastinating/sunbathing, you’re blowing through your savings like a Tasmanian Devil. We connect you with the best resources and in-country partners to optimise your employment opportunities, so that you can start earning straightaway or as soon as you’re ready.
