We’ve been recruiting into Australia for some time. It’s an amazing continent but there is a stereotypical image which comes to mind for most people when we mention ‘Oz’ – beaches, prawns, barbeques, however, it’s not all like that.

Tasmania, for example, is often overlooked and rich with opportunity if you’re looking for an adventure that’s a bit out of the ordinary. We’ve specialised in finding jobs for arborists, and vice versa, for 20 years now and we know that some of the hobbies and passions typically enjoyed are outdoor pursuits.

In an effort to match the person to the opportunity our client has told us more about this often-overlooked state – does it sound like somewhere you’d like to spend some time?

Tasmania is a beautiful state – lots of wilderness, outdoors lifestyle, great food, and drink (vinyards, distilleries), culture, art…. And a rich heritage. It’s also known internationally for its bike trails and hiking and is Australia’s capital of mountain biking and with worldclass MTB trails and fantastic road cycling too.

The climate is more like the UK than is much of the rest of Australia. There are four clear seasons, it rains, it even snows, but it is typically a little warmer and drier than blighty.

In terms of climbing – we’re told that it’s the Aussie state with the best tree work. Projects across Tasmania gives an arborist the opportunity to undertake exciting climbs, often in spectacular scenery.

If a southern hemisphere adventure sounds attractive drop us a line, tell up a bit about yourself and we’ll get the ball rolling.
