Get ready to sleigh this holiday season! Australia Post is on a massive hiring spree, looking for more than 3500 people to jump on board for the Christmas rush. Think of all those Black Friday and Cyber Monday parcels that need delivering. That’s where you come in!
Who Are They Looking For?
The call is out for a whole range of roles to keep the parcels moving. Australia Post needs forklift operators, van and truck drivers, and parcel sorters to handle the huge demand. If you’ve ever wanted to be one of Santa’s helpers, now’s your chance!
Victoria is leading the charge with 1000 jobs up for grabs, while New South Wales and Queensland are each looking for 900 new team members. It’s a massive effort to make sure everyone’s gifts arrive on time.
Why Are These Jobs So Important?
Last year was huge, with Australia Post delivering nearly 103 million parcels in the lead-up to Christmas. That couldn’t happen without the extra hands on deck. Sue Davies from Australia Post highlighted just how vital these seasonal workers are.
She explained that the company’s ability to deliver parcels quickly and reliably depends entirely on the hard work of every person they bring on board. These team members make a real difference for Aussies waiting for their festive deliveries.
Get Ready for a Bumper Season!
With online shopping bigger than ever, this holiday season is set to be a big one. The extra 3500 staff will join the existing 64,000-strong workforce to ensure the network can handle the millions of packages flying across the country. So, if you’re looking for work this Christmas, Australia Post might just have the perfect gig for you.
