Hi all,
I had a search and couldn't find anything similar so apologies if this is a duplicate.
Anyway I always thought it'd be my complaining about the weather that would lead us to seek a warmer climate but my wife is fed up too so we are on the look out for jobs in a climate with an actual summer.
Seeing as my wife has 10+ years experience in admin in the satellite industry the first port of call is to look for similar types of jobs.
Is there much of an industry down under these days?
For example things like the recent SKA announcement. Now if we are to believe the media this project will "create hundreds of jobs". Well this is no doubt a good thing but my question where do we apply?
Sure the CSIRO and SKA themselves have jobs portals but like most things wont the core of it be contracted out to private industry?
These would seem like the right people to apply with but who are they?
It doesn't have to be specifically that project but you get the idea.
There are a few scientific/space related jobs sites around but never with any Australian jobs.
Online searching doesn't come up with a great deal on info and sites like seek and jobsearch are worse.
So I was hoping that maybe some of you might already work in or have experience of working in these types of fields.
