The Northern Territory is one of Australia’s fastest growing regions and is destined for unprecedented future growth. A staggering 20 000 jobs are expected to be created in the next five years.

The Territory is on track to become a major oil and gas operations and maintenance hub. A new marine supply base will provide state-of-the-art facilities to service offshore oil and gas operations. In January 2012 one of Australia’s largest offshore / onshore gas projects, Ichthys, was announced. This USD$34 billion project alone is expected to create 3000 direct jobs and many more indirect job opportunities.

The spin-offs will include an unparalleled demand for skilled tradespeople of every kind, and professionals across broadranging sectors including engineering, hospitality, nursing, medicine, teaching and engineering. In fact, almost every sector needs workers.

The Territory’s location at the top of Australia puts it closer to Asia than to Australia’s main population centres. Find out more about working in the NT at Australia's Northern Territory.
