Top 10 High Demand High-Paying Jobs in Australia
1002010: 300+% Job Increase Over Projections in June 2010
During the summer of 2010, news from the respected business economy publication BLOOMBERG BUSINESSWEEK (reference link) was that Canada and Australia seemed little touched by the Recession of 2008-2010 that affected USA, UK, and other countries. At the same time, Australia experienced Unemployment in June 2010 of only 5.1%, the low rate when compared with USA and UK an indicator of open job listings in high demand of workers.
The number of job listings spidered across the Internet for Australia reached over 165,400 on the jobs search engine Indeed Australia (reference). A story on Yahoo!Finance on July 9, 2010 stated that Australia (reference) possessed 11,100,000 people actively on the job; according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics (reference). A report showed that economic forecasters predicted 15,000 new jobs for June 2010, but that the nation actually created 45,900 additional jobs - just over 300% of projections..

Projections for 2010 - 2011
A full copy of Australia Business Forecast Report Q3 2010 is a report published by Business Monitor International and for sale online at the price of 335 GBP.
Overall, a broad summary for the upcoming 4thQTR 2010 is a 2.3% total growth forecast for the country’s economy, spurred by continued business and government investments and the increasing Chinese demand for Australian resources. This all led to a remarkable creation of 45,900 jobs instead of the forecasted 15,000 in projections for June 2010, the end month of 3rd QTR. This trend is a firm continuation of marked growth beginning 4th QTR 2009. Chinese and Australian real estate sectors have also, reportedly, shown economic strength and growth during the last 12 months.
Whether there will be a slowdown or downturn in Australian and Chinese real estate during and after 4th QTR is uncertain during summer 2010. However, jobs continue to be created in July, but some analysts wonder about a possible Chinese property crash in 2010 – 2011 that would decrease the currently increasing demand for Australian resources in China. China’s business behaviors also include purchasing Australian companies and it will be interesting to see if this trend also continues. Other factors in economic growth include newly proposed resource taxes and their expected impact.

Business Monitor Internationalalso suggests that the 2010 - 2014 outlook for Australian mining industry overall is a strong one, The predicted growth at an average pace of 6.8% during the years 2010 - 2015. As discussed above, China, along with other Aisan nations, is exerting a high demand for natural resources that are mined in Australia and Aisan Countries expected to do so until at least 2015.

Australian Space Program
Spacefaring activities in Australia are under a resurgence of inerest as the Australian Space Research Insitute increases its energies. An all-volunteer organization, it relies on efforts provided by Australian Universities like Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology and others.

The town of Woomera is owned by the Australian Defense Force. It offers visits to one of the most recognized aerospace historical sites of the 1960s - 1990s, to the Woomera National Aerospace and Missile Park at town center, a visitors information center, a heritage interpretation centet, and a museum. There is also film theater, bowling alley, swimming pool, retail shops, faverns, and others. Additional visits take tourists into the desert for the woldlife and plant.

Visiting and Working in Australia 2010 - 2015
In 2010, a call seems to be out to move to Australia. The werbsite Embrace Australia at http://www.embraceaustralia.com states that higher numbers of British residents emigrate to Australia than any other nation. teh site relays infomration from publications such as Currency UK suggesting that the UK economy is rather uncertain andmay remain so, while Chinese trade interest in Australian reosurces remains high and also is likely to reamain so for some years.
Embrace Asutralia tells us that many British residents retire to Australia as well as to emigrate for work, obtaining actual work visas.
ADVANTAGES IN AUSTRALIA
Climate
Besides a strong economy, the climate in Australia is more pleasant overall for the British tired of wet weather and Americans tired of the cold in the north.
Education
Education for children in Australia is advertised as top notch. Reprots are that 80% of youth atteend higher education facilities as well.
Healthcare
An NHS system is named Medicare in Australia and offered to permanent residents. However, private healthcare remains available via arrangements at work.
Culture
Much of the culture is located within a short distances of Austrailian coastlines and beaches, involving outdoor activities much of each year. Sightseeing can be done in any number of landscapes, from rainforests to deserts, an Aboriginal Peoples still call teh continent and country home in many areas.

Seems business analyst jobs are in great demand and highest paying jobs too. Thanks for sharing this info Patty.
You are doing such wonderful job there in helping people to learn where there are job vacancies and showing the beautiful country.
Its a very up and coming place and the images look fabulous
There is so much I like about Australia. It is near the top of my list of places to go someday. Informative article, thanks.
Good Morning Good Soul!!
GREAT Hub!! Even though I live in sunny California, I have often thought of relocating to Australia or New Zealand!! For all the reasons you listed!!
You listed even more reasons than I was aware of!! And it makes perfect sense to me that so many from around the world are thinking/doing the same!!
GREAT Hub Patty!! Thank you always for sharing such insightful information in your Hubs!!
Blessings, Earth Angel!
Australia did survive the worst of the crisis but jobs can still be hard to find. The mining industry is booming but jobs are in out of the way places in the outback, which may not suit many families. Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane are the main cities for the big paying jobs and it helps if you have sponsorship or a job offer before you come over.
Great hub Patty, your research is excellent and from good sources.
It looks like Australia has much a much better outlook for jobs in the near future than the United States does. Thanks for the great read!
Very interesting! I've always wanted to go!
Nice hub. Good to see Australia survived the downturn seen elsewhere.
Very interesting hub! I've always wanted to visit Australia. It sounds like Australia is doing well.
Australia is a good place to travel
This is like a professional hub. Congratulations and keep up the good work!
your hub makes me up! Cant' wait to Australia !
I liked this article, there is alot of information
this is a good work.... very nice and i like it so much
hmm.. I should consider moving to Australia:)
Great hub, you done some hard work here to get this information to us all. Thank you for all this! ~aloha~
Well done in bringing Australia to the front with this excellent hub. A few surprises here too. Thanks for the update.
I will seriously consider working in Australia. I love their laid back lifestyle. Australians are very nice citizens as well. Thanks for the very detailed info.
Drivers? Wow, those are not high paying here, but I've seen shows on TV about Ausie highways - -long and boring. Tough to stay alert. Good hub!
Very timely hub for folk in the US who are despairing of the job situation here.
Well! now i will try to go Australia.
excellent article. thanks for sharing!
Hello, always interesting reading a hub about Australia by non-Australians. Just wanted to make one comment re. healthcare. I don't think Medicare is a great system, you would be be almost mad to not get private health insurance if you can afford it, but usually it is done out of your own pocket, not through the company that you work for. I worked in the U.S. for a while, and I know the company I worked for had its own health plan, but that is not the norm here.
Schooling can be great, again depending on where you live. Some public schools are dreadful and in desperate need of funding. Private schools are expensive, and often have a long waitlist (ie, you have to put your child down when they are born). Having said that, they do seem to often find room for families from overseas.
One big plus about Australia - no matter how many years you've been working for a company, four weeks annual leave a year is given. Plus sick leave is added on top of your annual leave, it does not come out of it.
Australia is a great country, with some wonderful cities. When I lived in the U.S. I had a calender with pictures of Melbourne next to my desk and almost everyone that came by my cubicle would comment that they had no idea Melbourne was so big. The guy from my local Plaid Pantry in Portland (which is much smaller than Melbourne), asked me what it was like living in the outback, and how was I finding big city life?
Some areas of Australia may not be everyone's cup of tea, so like anywhere, do your research before accepting a job here, or you may find yourself out in the middle of nowhere. Sometimes jobs that can't be filled by Australians are vacant for a reason! I certainly don't the get the sense that we are unaffected by the recession. The government gave handouts last year - a stimulus package designed to encourage spending, but since they stopped I know a lot of retailers are suffering. Sometimes things just take longer to reach here, but I was encouraged by the employment info in this hub. Thanks Patty, for giving my beloved country such a great rap.
Australia is a good place to live no mater what you do (I don't have that good a job - but I have a fantastic lifestyle)
I also just wanted to point out to anyone looking at the salaries of jobs in Aus that the Australian dollar is not worth as much as the U.S. dollars, so what may sound like a great salary may look less when converted into U.S. dollars. I am sure most people know that, but just wanted to make sure.
Well at the time of writing this, the exchange rate for the Aus dollar is 0.91 to US dollar, so there is not much difference and if you are a person working on the minimum wage, you are far better off living in Australia then the US. The minimum wage in Aus is $15 dollars an hour ($569.90) per week - compared to $7.15 in the US and some states are as low as $5.15 and the workers have to rely on tips to make up for the lack of wage.
If you were to convert the Aus $15 dollars an hour to US, you would be on $13.76 an hour, so if you don't have much skills, Aus is the place to be.
As for Medicare, any citizen who wants to see a doctor, can go to many clinics in Australia and not pay a cent for seeing a doctor. Sure, there are many doctors who also charge highly for a visit, but you still have the choice of being able to pay nothing as a lot of doctors (Bulk Bill) and Medicare subsidizes some or all of the cost of the bill.
Just for the record I visited Woomera as a protest against the Woomera Dentention Centre which held men women & children asylum seekers some five years ago. Fortunately comstant protest got the hell hole closed. Woomera is a very desolate place in the middle of a harsh flat desert terrain.
Sure Glassy, the Aussie dollar is good at the moment, or should I say the US dollar is weak, but once upon a time it was as low as .50 to the U.S. dollar. Medicare might be okay for a doctor's visit, but I wouldn't want to be on a hospital waiting list! Look, I love Australia, but people on the minimum wage here are struggling to keep afloat. I think they would laugh to hear people saying it sounded great. We do tend to pay more for goods here too. Things such as clothing etc are cheaper in the States, simply because the market is so much bigger.
Yes, MayG you are right in saying that things are very expensive in Aus and that shows no sign of reversing anytime soon, but its still the lucky country in my opinion.
Even though I live in sunny California, I have often thought of relocating to Australia or New Zealand!! For all the reasons you listed!!
I learn something new everyday, since I have been hearing a lot of people say that they want to move to Ausralia; after reading this HubPage it is very clear why! If the U.S Economy was like that of Ausralia, as far as jobs and growth; then Mexico as far as the Free Healthcare. I am fairly certain that many U.S. Citizens would be content with life in the U.S.!!
Who am I, I'm no one in Congress or Politics and I can't change anything. I can say that many people feel that way and are willing to greener pastures. Sounds like they are within Australia and a few other places.
HI Patty, the jobs numbers you quote are interesting. Many of the "new" jobs are infact people like my wife and myself who were self-employed and whose businesses did not survive the GFC and have been un-employed or under-employed between 2008 and 2010. I have only just found full time work for the fisrt time since 2008 and we've had to move 5000 k's across the country to Kalggorlie Western Australan to get work with a renumeration package that is enough to live and save on. And, interestingly it is a truck driving job. I'll be driving semi-trailers and B-doubles and expect to be away from home for 5 to 7 days at a time.
Cheers Dags the Drover
@iamqweenbee, For your information there are so many countries which has space research program and Australia is one of them. India is also missing from the list.
I hope to visit Australia soon. With how well it rates on education, cost of living, and happiness, I've been considering moving there once I start a family.
Hello, thanks for the information... as far as I can see my occupation isnt in demand in Oz, which is a great shame, but I see no reason why I shouldnt get some training in a profession that is?! From the info on this page it looks as though demand for workers are only going to increase over the coming years, so why not!
Useful hub which is very informative and revealing.thanks for sharing this .
Thank you For Livet
Hi, what a glowing report about the best country on earth (of course I'm biased). However, I agree with Barry Rutherford that Woomera is a hell hole - and I'm not sure that they have regular rocket launches - maybe the occasional one at best. I thought it was mostly closed down but I could be wrong.
I'd love to be a driver in Australia. Of course, the hub may be a little too optimistic, but Australia is surely better off than most if not all of the "developing" countries.
i love to move there ended up in france bad move
This is good to hear because i have been thinking of switching into a business analyst position, good to know it pays well. Thanks for the info.
I grant pattester.
oh thkz for this post....i'm in dilema for my post gradution in australia or in usa now i got a clear idea about it....thku
I like this article.This hub consist of a lot of information.I want to visit to Australia because the Australia is very beautiful country.I aware some location of the Australia.Thanks for this sharing.
I never realized Australia was experiencing such growth. I have been thinking of moving out of the U.S for awhile so the hub has given me an whole new option I had never considered. Fabulous information and very helpful
Most wanted IT jobs in there?
Enjoyed reading your hub article about Australia's increase in jobs, especially during such a negative period in the history of the United States.
Your title captured my attention because I am interested in where to find possible upcoming jobs. I was hoping to learn about possible jobs for myself, but no such luck.
Even so, your article was very informative. I did not know about China's interest in Australia, Australian resources, real estate, mining and space programs.
Australia seems like a place worth keeping an eye on for future happenings.
Australia is a great country full of opportunity. You don't have to go for the top earning jobs though in order to live with a great quality of life. Great article, thanks.
very nice post indeed! thanks for sharing! Australia is a worthwhile place to live.
AUZZIE AUZZI AUZZI!
OI OI OI!
Best Country in the world!
Great job! I never new this.
Aussie $ much stronger then
How do you put together such informational Hubs. It's sorcery!
Australia is not only a good place to find work. It is also one of the best places to live for expectant moms..
Australia is a great place to live and work. What I love about Australia is its simplicity.
I have lived in Australia for the last ten years, I have never been able to get a decent job. I have to use my own personal savings to survive. Life is tough there for Asian immigrants.
i would like to ask, if they accept foreign applicants for financial accountant? i'm from the philippines and i'm planning to work in Australia with my sister. and if i still have to study a bridging course there or to take a board exam?
One thing i like about Australia is wild life. I'm sure those who are vet would love to work at popular animal parks in Australia. I found this hub while searching job query for my friend on bing. Nice hub patty.
I was living in Sydney for the past 10 years. I am a technical specialist earning $150k per year. However, it was really expensive to live in Sydney. Most of my friends were struggling with their mortgage. The house price was crazy and the interest rate for the mortgage was really high. You get good medical benefit but that comes from the high tax you pay. I was not able to save much after paying the rent and food. For the same amount of money you will get higher living standards in the State. Traffic was a nightmare too in Sydney. Very limited highways over there. It was part of the factor that drives the housing price up. Most people prefer living close to their jobs. In the State, you can live far away because they have great highways there.
Fabulous information and very helpful

Hi Patty
I currently live in Perth and moved to Australia over a year ago with a few of my friends. Our skills vary from bartender, tiler, carpenter, commercial diver...etc. The East coast was fun and exciting for the time we spent there but even with degrees in hand, we were treated like backpackers and offered low paying jobs or only paid a fraction of what one can make in WA.
We left for Perth and never looked back. There are so many jobs in Perth, you can be whatever you want to be. $1000 per week is standard for most labourer jobs and if you get your tickets for machines such as bobcat, excavator, loader or forklift, the money will rise substantially!
The mining boom is in full swing at the moment and companies find it hard to hold on to quality staff in the Perth area. If you were offered $3000-$5000 per WEEK, fly-in fly-out, would you go!? I would! This is why Perth needs so many workers. The city is expanding at an alarming rate. Extra capital increases building. Any tradie who can't make a living in Perth is in the wrong business! There are also alot of Admin/office jobs associated with this as well..
IT jobs are now in huge demand. Girls and guys are heading more towards engineering for the mines.
Australia is BOOMING....
australia is a good place hmmmmmmmmmmmmm
My Husband and I work Australia wide in the Mining Exploration Industry. At present there is a high demand for workers. We love the Outback and spend three weeks out there every month. Then we get a break for a week. The company flies us into Alice Springs where we then drive 4 hours out to camp after picking up all our supplies. Great lifestyle. It is not for everyone however.
I've got my resume...Now all I need is an airplane ticket.
Really nice post, thanks
best page I have ever seen
That's interesting, nowaday it is touch to find a suitable job.
My favorite friend is studying at Australia. She said there is a lots of attractive boys...:)
really nice tnx

Patty, I love your hubs. We are struggling here in Oregon even though we are both talented people. My sweetheart is one of the best EP (electrophysiology techs around). Are there positions like that in Australia? My best friend just moved there, so I would think about it.
Hi friends how r u...dear Patty what are the prospects for Electrical Engineers in Australia....I love Australias Climate..
Hi friends,
Please anyone suggest the best location in Australia for IT (Software Engineer) as I have only State Sponsorship.Sp, can anyone please suggest me which state has the better prospects in terms of Software Jobs.
Right. Time for a massive relocation :)
Whether Business Analyist includes Credit Apraisal part as usually we find in Banking Industires?
You better get in quick before it fills up with refugees and boat people :(
There are lots of jobs right now for specialist Mine technicians that can maintain Mining electrical and mechanical equipment as well as explosive experts etc...
Huge there are three thousand vacancies right now in Mining
The company I retired from which does directional drilling, is sending a team to Australia to begin a huge shale gas drilling project there. That discovery could be a huge new source of jobs. Too bad that immigrating there is so difficult for Americans.
Cheers
Off all the listed jobs, I think that nursing is the most secure and better paid. Especially in Australia, nursing jobs are one of the most popular career option due to the job security and high demand..
Registered nurse as a top job that can't be right. It's definitely not a high paying job, I should know because I am one!
As a Southern California resident it's difficult thinking of moving and I did a lot of research on Australlia for many reasons, but with a family of 7 it's a big commitment. Yes I found the jobs pay better then most of the USA but I also found cost of living there was equally higher.
Something to consider before buying your one way ticket.
What about bricklaying? Is that still on the demands list in aus? Is there still plenty of work
I read this and have decided i am moving to australia!!! Not only have i ALWAYS wanted to go there more than anything else, apperently the economy is booming and for just the things im training in currently =D. Seeya America, i appreciate everything, but the good oll outback, here i come!!!!!!!!!
Dear all,
If anyone can advise or have insights regarding studying the following courses in AUstralia, & hopefully able to get a working visa (they called it 485 in Australia), & eventually able to get an Australia PR (Permanent Resident status):-
1) Saw at internet,one of the school Silver Trowel in Perth, is offering courses like bricklaying, tiles, plastering & carpentry.
2) school fees for 2years = A$24,000.
3) above courses are at Certificate level III.
4) Myself, already 41 years old.
5) Have family & 2 kids.
6) After gradudate, able to get job?.
Thanks
Great info, but Shhhhhhhhh, don't tell everyone!
It might get too crowded. Just joking, all welcome.

Australia is a good place to travel. Your hub is informative about the place. Many of the tourists will surely go there after reading this post. Nice job!.
I wish I could go as my family lives there but I'm stuck in South Africa till i sort out my visa
hi all and patty i just discovered this site, are qualifications a big part in getting a job in australia?
i have 7 years of plastering behind me as well as some domestic plumbing quals but not fully qualified and im currently also doing site carpentry at college but i doubt i will be fully qualified in that either, the reason being that i am not fully qualified in the plumbing, and most probably the carpentry will be the same, is that once ive finished these courses i have to get a full time job and be assessed on site, but as i live in the uk its really quite hard to find someone to take you on, im 25 years old and have been plastering since i was 18, all learnt on the job.
so basically would i struggle to get work because i am not qualified??? also is there some kind of apprentice scheme for foreign student that i could jump on???
hope you all havd a good xmas, hope to hear from someone soon. cheers
Thank you Patty for sharing great information. Have already got Australian PR but yet to make the move given my attachment with the current job. Wish I can find the job by applying online in 2012.
Just another point Health Care is very good here. For instance I am covered by both medicare & Private health insurance I am in top private cover for a single like me it is $42 dollars a week. Company sponsored Health insurance is rare..
I'm quite suprised to see that drivers are even on the list. Although I'm happy to see Business Analyst is at the top (currently the field that I am studying).
I am 26 years old and a qualified joiner/carpenter with nearly 11 years experiance. Im very sporty as i play semi pro soccer and also mixed martial arts. I am single and have no ties so would like to go to a place in australia that is full of things to do during the day and also at night. i am looking for the best place to go that is enjoyable aswell but foremost work to live comfortably and hopefully save.I am applying to get my years work visa soon but i just dont know what place is best for me workwise and also suit my sporting interests. Would appreciatte any information at all that can tell me what would suit, thank you
Jonathan

Hi Patty,
I didn't know Australia had a space research program. I thought that only the U.S, China, and Russia did. Thanks for sharing
