Hello!

I am the HR Manager at Voyages Ayers Rock Resort and we currently have
an full-time, permanent job opening within our Star Talking team. The
role is responsible for providing information about the night Sky to
guests at our Sounds of Silence dinner. The information includes facts
about the stars etc, as well as Indigenous interpretations of the
night sky. This person will also be responsible for basic cleaning and
maintenance of our Telescopes. We would love to find someone who is
passionate about the subject and has the ability to pass on that
passion through their talks.

If there is a newsletter or similar that you publish that we may be
able to use to communicate with people who would be interested in this
job I would really appreciate hearing back from you.

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me.

Thank you for your assistance.

Kind regards,

Retirement in 5 yrs? surely not! you look to young Nettie. Or an early Grey Nomad with a long stay at the rock? My dream job also, but never to be.

I agree, very tempting indeed.

Just way too many commitments to even consider it though.
