Job Opportunities - Regional Spotlight: Adelaide

 

Festivals and food. Arts and culture. Shopping and sports. This is Adelaide: the Australian city where there's always something going on. South Australia's capital has it all with spacious boulevards, vibrant inner-city districts, sophisticated architecture and lush gardens as well. South Australians have one of the world's biggest backyards to call their own. Attractions include deserted beaches, world-class wine regions, undulating hills, outback deserts, the Flinders Ranges and the amazing Kangaroo Island; which was recently voted by National Geographic Traveller as the most unspoiled island in the Asia Pacific region.
 
With beautiful spaces, a relaxed atmosphere and a real regard for family, the Adelaide lifestyle is greatly envied. Given South Australia is the Australian state with a real work/life balance, it’s not surprising that the state is growing and its famous lifestyle is more envied than ever. The state’s government values and encourages the economic contribution made by people who migrate there. In 2008, Adelaide was rated by the Economist as one of the world's top cities for its living standards, lifestyle benefits and affordable housing and it was also named as one of the least expensive developed cities in the world according to KPMG. Low housing costs coupled with solid incomes and appreciable growth makes it both a great opportunity for migrants and a sound investment.
 
Adelaide is truly multicultural and, most importantly, it remains a tolerant and accepting society made up of people from all backgrounds.
