Tourism & hospitality
If your ability to have fun borders on the professional, you need a job in tourism and hospitality. Show others how it’s done by repping the Northern Territory and sharing your sunny disposition – and favourite local hangouts – with other lucky visitors. Pick up a coveted job in tourism or join the sociable, hedonistic hospo crew: the undisputed legends when it comes to working and playing hard. The sky’s the limit when it comes to options: work in your favourite café, bar or restaurant and blur the boundaries between work and pleasure; nab a job in a friendly hostel or a swish hotel; share your destination expertise as a travel consultant or tour guide; or pick up shifts that complement your passions.
