A Guide to Working Abroad in Australia & Oceania
Locations
Oceania is not just a place for blonde, tanned, surfer hotties; it’s a land filled with people from all over the world. Nicknamed the “backpacker region,” travelers can make friends with people from Sweden, Chile, and China all in the same day. But this region’s diversity is found in much more than its people. Whether you want to spend your free time petting kangaroos in Australia, skiing down snow-capped mountains in New Zealand, trekking through jungles in Vanuatu, or swimming under waterfalls in Fiji, you will find everything you’ve ever dreamed of in Oceania.
Australia is one of the most popular destinations for travelers from Europe, Asia, and North and South America. From beaches to harbors and bustling cities to pure, authentic outback, there is so much to explore in Australia. Head to Sydney to check out the iconic Opera House and climb the famous Sydney Harbor Bridge. Explore the graffitied streets of Melbourne, where you can spend hours at hole-in-the-wall cafes or join the sunbakers in Brisbane, with their extremely laidback lifestyle and plenty of waves to catch. No matter the location, you’ll have heaps of opportunities to join sports fanatics watching the footy, hit the pokies, work on your tan, and meet new mates from across the globe.
New Zealand calls to all adrenaline junkies. You’ll fall in love with the islands’ clear turquoise waters, lush green fields, and truly, majestically purple mountains. Queenstown, the extreme sports capital of the Southern Hemisphere, is the perfect place to bungee jump off bridges or ski through snow-capped mountains. In the North Island, you’ll find the iconic Lord of the Rings’ Shire, where hobbits roam with their big hairy feet. Some of New Zealand’s bigger cities, like Auckland and Wellington, combine rugged beauty with city life, so there’s something to keep everyone happy.
The Pacific Islands are another popular location to work abroad in Oceania. Countries like Fiji and Micronesia offer a truly unique cultural experience, different from what you find in Australia or New Zealand. While there are more cultural and linguistic differences, you’ll undoubtedly be surrounded with positive vibes that come from close knit, hospitable communities and constant hearty laughter. Head to the islands for white sands and clear blue waters where you can surf, snorkel, swim, kayak, and even trek over volcanoes.
Jobs in Australia & Oceania
For most people, working abroad makes it possible to enjoy an extended stay in a foreign country; with the job opportunities in Oceania available for travelers, you will enjoy all the benefits that come with working abroad: travel, meeting new people, making some moolah, expanding resumes, and having new adventures.
Many travelers in Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific Islands seek out jobs in the hospitality industry. This could mean working in bars and restaurants or in hostels and guesthouses. Most of hospitality jobs in Oceania include perks like free meals or accommodation in exchange for work, a fun atmosphere, and, of course, the opportunity to meet heaps of new mates. This field of work is great for shorter time commitments, schedule flexibility, and location-based travel itineraries.
For those looking for a truly immersive experience, try au pairing in Oceania. Au pairs have the opportunity to travel the world and earn money, while living with a host family who will house, feed, and treat you like their own. These jobs usually include a weekly stipend, along with full accommodation and meal coverage, so every cent you earn will go straight to your pocket! And since Australia and New Zealand have such huge au pair communities, it will be easy to meet friends through your work.
While au pairing is less popular in the islands and Southeast Asia, it is very easy to find English teaching jobs. Whether you have a TEFL certificate or not, you can head to Oceania and teach English to local children. You can live cheaply, make a decent living, and have plenty of time to travel to (cheap) neighboring countries. While you’re teaching your language, sign up for your own local language classes to boost your experience too!
Salary & Affordability
With a range of destinations in the Oceania region comes a range of living costs. While some countries are cheaper than others, most travelers will be able to find work that will cover their living costs and leave enough to save for travel afterwards.
Just because Australia and New Zealand are some of the top international travel destinations, doesn’t mean everyone can afford to live there. Rent is slightly higher than that in the United States, meals out at an inexpensive restaurant average almost $20, and forget about finding a cheap bottle of liquor! At the same time, minimum wage in Australia is more than double compared to the United States, and New Zealand’s is similar. So for those working full time, no matter what job, you will make more than enough money to live comfortably. And if your job offers a homestay, your stipend will be nothing but pocket money, so save up and have fun!
The cost of living in the Pacific Islands is significantly low, except in biggest tourist destinations. Travelers heading here may feel like millionaires at first, and will be able to easily survive on $30 a day! But even if you’ve spent your time working abroad in the Pacific Islands, you’ll be able to make a lot more money than you’ll spend, making it a great place to work abroad in Oceania.
If you need some help covering the plane ticket to this part of the world, consider starting a crowdsourced fundraiser through FundMyTravel.
Accommodation & Visas
Most people don’t realize how easy it to pack a bag, book a flight, and find temporary work in the Oceania region. From visas to finding a place to call home, the process is a lot less daunting than any preformed opinions about it.
Australia and New Zealand both offer working holiday visas for travelers under the age of 30. All it takes is a quick online application form, and your visa approval will be emailed to you within the day. No paperwork needed; a one-year working holiday visa will be electronically linked to your passport. The best part of this visa is that it truly encourages you to work and travel. Visa guidelines say travelers can work anywhere, full-time, for six months under one employer. While you can switch jobs after six months, the point is to work, save, and explore the rest of the country.
While the rest of the Oceania region doesn’t offer the same working holiday visa, it is fairly easy to obtain a visa. In Fiji and many other Pacific Islands, most jobs will endorse you throughout the process, while in others, there will be other options for nonimmigrant visas. The process and requirements will ultimately depend on your nationality, so check out GoAbroad's Embassy Directory for more information.
No matter where you decide to work in Oceania, you will be able to find housing to suit your needs. Au pairs will have accommodation provided in home stays, while teachers will usually have housing options provided through their teaching contracts. If all else fails, look for house-shares. In Australia, Aussies tend to move around the country just as much as international travelers, so people are constantly looking for flatmates.
Benefits & Challenges
Anywhere you choose to work abroad in Oceania will offer you the chance for adventurous travel. You can spend a year in a foreign country, making money on what feels like an extended vacation in a beautiful place, what could be better? You’ll have the opportunity to explore reef, mountain, desert, and beach locations all while making lifelong friends.
While it’s easy to get a temporary work visa in Oceania, permanent residence is extremely difficult to acquire. You may fall in love with your new home, but forget about moving there permanently, unless you find yourself a nice bloke/sheila to marry! Enjoy each day to its fullest and leave a lasting impression with your employer; maybe you’ll impress enough to be invited back?
The Oceania region is scattered across the Pacific Ocean, from the Australian outback to Kiwi mountains and winding roads to Fijian villages. The region is full of different cultures, languages, and people, but is united by the ever-present ocean and laidback lifestyle. What more could you ask for while working abroad?

Unforgettable experience with Global Work & Travel
June 11, 2026by: Brandon - - United KingdomI had an unforgettable experience with global work & travel on this trip, and my Trip Coordinator Shona was truly exceptional. They took care of every detail, from logistics to local insights, making sure each day was seamless and exciting. Their knowledge of the area was impressive, and they shared hidden gems that we would have never discovered on our own. What really stood out was how they handled unexpected situations with ease, always staying one step ahead and making sure we felt comfortable and supported. They communicated clearly, so we always knew what to expect, and their enthusiasm made the whole experience feel that much more special. Thanks to Shona, I could fully relax and enjoy the adventure without any stress. Highly recommend for anyone looking to make the most out of their travels with expert guidance! Will definitely be back in the future.
My trip has been absolutely excellent so far
June 11, 2026by: Jarret - - CanadaMy trip has been absolutely excellent so far. I arrived on the 19th of February in Sydney and am living in Glenmore Park. A few days after exploring the place and seeing what is around me I went to a concert that was amazing. After that I went to a place called Forster and got to see the beach and the ocean surrounding it. I got to go on a boat and do some fishing while seeing all the wildlife around including pelicans, dolphins and a lot of different kind of fish and sea life. After all the exploring I went back to Penrith and met some of my partners family and friends who were all so nice to me. They explained the culture a little bit more, and a lot of them are rugby (footy?) fans and introduced me to the game which I found really fascinating because I love sports and learning the game. Now that I've settled in and seen what's around I am looking for jobs around the area. My next goal here is to figure out the bus and train systems so that I can get myself around. Another goal I have is to make some friends in my free time and get some insight on the hidden gems of the area. I'd really like to go for some hikes to see more of all the natural beauty of the area. I'm so happy about how warm it is here and not having any snow around me makes me so happy. I do miss my family back home and with the time difference its hard to catch them when they are available but its been nice to have a different family atmosphere to be around that is so warm and welcoming. I do feel a little out of my comfort zone being in a place that is so different from where I come from, but each day that I am here it gets better and better. I'd like to thank Shona for being there if I have any questions or concerns and keeping in contact with insights and tips. It's very much appreciated with everything this journey has come with. I feel like I'm in safe and good hands and would recommend her to anyone who wants a fantastic experience with Global!
Experience of A Lifetime
June 11, 2026by: Phill - - United StatesThis trip has truly been the experience of a lifetime, and it has been made so much easier by Asti and other people at global work and travel who have assisted me. Asti has helped me book day trips, hostels, and provided me with a great job match before I even arrived in Australia!
Incredible Experience so far..
June 11, 2026by: Jack - - United StatesI've been delighted with my experience, working with Global has made my experience amazing and given me peace of mind that all will go smoothly and if not, I've got assistance if needed! Asti, my arrival coordinator, has been most helpful and checked in multiple times even since my arrival to make sure that all is going well. My only feedback would be that I think that orientation should be in person, with other Global travellers in the area - it was difficult to network with others travelling with the same company over messaging only, and the 2 people I managed to find agreed that they thought orientation was in person 😅. Overall, an incredible experience so far, and thank you for your help finding me a suitable role and supporting me at every stage.

Highly Recommended Program with Global Work & Travel
June 11, 2026by: Erin - - United StatesCould not recommend enough! Since day 1, Charlie, David and Hannah have all been so kind and informative. They have all helped me to book and arrange everything, this is my first time travelling so I had alot of silly questions that they answered as best they could and I could not be more thankful. Hannah has checked in every step of the way and been so reassuring and helpful since arriving. I would not be out in Australia loving life if it wasn't for them all
Life-Changing Experience in Australia with Global Work & Travel
June 11, 2026by: Joe - - United KingdomPlanning a life changing event like working and living abroad doesn't come without a mountain of tasks, unseen hurdles and life admin I really wasn't ready for... Luckily the stress was pretty much evaporated by the team at Global who made the process a breeze, guiding through the stages of booking, planning and all the admin you wouldn't think about until I landed... Flights. Visa. Phone Sim. First Hostel, and probably most reassuring of all - a job when you've stepped off the plane. They handle it absolutely perfectly, pre trip nerves ? Squashed with constant check ins for concerns and changes of your plans ! Nothing is too much trouble for the team at Global, who guide you through the whole journey from concept to landing on the tarmac Down under - with continued support after you've settled to really keep you reassured. I would highly recommend Global based on my experience with them, be it for a working holiday, excursion tour or any of their services! What makes it so much more tangible is the team there have had their own travelling experiences and handle your booking on a human level, really hyping you up in the build up and putting any worries at ease. My trip In particular was handled flawlessly by Myles, David and Asti. Who I highly commend from taking me out of a nowhere job bored in the UK to living the dream down under in Melbourne !
Outstanding Support and Smooth Settlement in Australia
June 11, 2026by: Caitlin - - CanadaAsti and the rest of the Global team have been nothing but amazing when helping me get prepared and settled into my accommodations and work place in Australia. They set everything up for me prior to my arrival which made me feel at ease when arriving. I would highly recommend using any of their services when booking any sort of trip with the company and also highly recommend having Asti as a travel coordinator as she has been nothing but sweet, understanding, and respectful while assisting me throughout this process!
Seamless Support and Lifelong Memories with Global Work & Travel

Smooth Arrival and Stunning First Impressions of Melbourne Nightlife
June 11, 2026by: Keaton H - United KingdomFirst and foremost my trip has barely started im only 3 weeks in but I have really enjoyed the nightlife in Melbourne and just how sublime the city appears at night with breath taking views. My travel coordinator made it simple for me to be able to land in Australia and not have to worry about taxi, or Ubers to get to my accommodation and also helping me with multiple job opportunities, before I arrived in Australia communication was very immediate to ensure my trip was as smooth as possible.
Grateful for the Opportunity: Enjoying My Job on a Cattle Farm and Looking Forward to Traveling!
March 16, 2026by: Greg WalshProgram: Farm Work in Australia
Hi Georgie, I just wanted to say a big thank you for all that you have done to get me over here and have a job. I have been at my job nearly four weeks and I am really enjoying it. Not sure if I told you or not but it is a cattle farm around 4 hours west of Brisbane and I have been doing lots of cattle work and learning lots of new skills. My boss is real nice too which makes it better still. Not really sure how long I will be here. I am thinking until the end of April before starting my travelling and making my way back home eventually to rainy England. Was nice to meet you at the training farm and put a face to a name! Thanks once again, Greg
Unforgettable Experience in Australia: From Sydney to Surf Camp and Sunshine Coast – 10/10 Would Recommend!

But overall 10/10 experience would recommend this to anyone.
Working in one of the Championship Golf Clubs in New Zealand
November 23, 2025by: Justus Theodor Christiansen - GermanyWhen I arrived in New Zealand in September, I was welcomed incredibly warmly. The accommodation in Auckland was great, and there were many people who were about to start the same adventure, which made it very easy to make connections quickly. I also received a lot of help when buying my car, which I really appreciated. About a week and a half after arriving, I drove to my job with my car. I was welcomed just as warmly at the golf club. everyone showed me around, explained how everything works, and introduced me to the place where I would be living. Two days later, I had a wonderful first induction day, and ever since, everyone has been extremely kind and supportive. On my days off, I also had plenty of time to explore the surroundings and do a few activities.



I highly recommend Oyster
February 24, 2025by: Megan PhillipsonProgram: Farm Work in Australia
Oyster Worldwide helped me every step of the way for the paid farm work programme. I had many questions and Georgie was very helpful in answering any of them. I found the entire process very smooth and I'm very happy to be in Australia. Georgie really made my experience coming to Australia easy. I decided to do the farm work experience in Australia very last minute and I was able to easily get a spot in a group and I am now very happy working on a farm in NSW. I highly recommend Oyster for anyone trying to plan a gap year abroad.
The Perfect Start to My Australian Adventure – Highly Recommend!
February 17, 2025by: Sophie Laplane - United StatesProgram: Melbourne Gap Year: Paid Work Opportunities in Australia
Joining the Melbourne Gap Year tour with Grabatour was the best way to start my working holiday in Australia. From day one, everything was well-organized, and the team made sure we had all the essentials sorted—bank accounts, tax file numbers, SIM cards, and even job support. It took away all the stress of settling in and allowed me to focus on enjoying the experience. The itinerary was a perfect balance of practical help and exciting activities. We explored Melbourne’s vibrant laneways, visited St. Kilda Beach, and got to experience the city’s amazing food and coffee culture. The guides were friendly, knowledgeable, and always ready to help with anything we needed. One of the best parts of the tour was the people. I met an incredible group of fellow travelers, and the shared experiences made it easy to form friendships. Even after the tour ended, we stayed in touch and continued exploring Australia together. If you’re planning a working holiday in Australia, I highly recommend this tour. It gives you the perfect start, a great group of friends, and the confidence to begin your adventure the right way!
Excellent working holiday intro tour in Melbourne
February 17, 2025by: Alexandra Paul - United StatesProgram: Melbourne Gap Year: Paid Work Opportunities in Australia
I recently joined the Melbourne Gap Year tour with Grabatour, and it was hands down the perfect way to kick-start my Australian adventure! From the moment I arrived, everything was well-organized, making the transition into a new country smooth and stress-free. The itinerary was a great mix of practical support and fun experiences. The team helped us set up essentials like bank accounts, tax file numbers, and SIM cards, which saved me so much time and hassle. They also provided great advice on job hunting, which gave me a real head start in finding work. Beyond the practical stuff, the city tours were a highlight. We explored Melbourne’s famous laneways, checked out the street art, and visited St. Kilda Beach, all while learning about the city’s culture. There were also plenty of opportunities to socialize, and I met an amazing group of people from all over the world. The support from their local team didn’t stop when the tour ended—they were always there to help with any questions I had. If you’re looking for an exciting, hassle-free way to start your working holiday in Australia, I highly recommend this tour!
It’s been a lot of fun
February 13, 2025by: John SalvoProgram: Farm Work in Australia
The first week went great and the training farm was wonderful. Brisbane was beautiful and I was able to do a lot of cool stuff with the people I met through the program. The training farm was very helpful and I learned a lot that I didn’t know before. Now I am at my job at Suttor Creek, mustering and branding cattle as well as doing some maintenance work. It’s been a lot of fun and I’m having a great time.
You really feel like part of the family working here
January 04, 2025by: Sally DempsterProgram: Work With Horses in Australia Abroad
Working with the horses and the livery clients has been incredibly fun and the flexible working hours have meant it’s been really easy to do some exploring in my downtime! The horses are all really sweet and I’ve been able to ride in my free time as well. The local area is beautiful and the beach is only 5 minutes down the road. There are shops close by and amazing beaches all along the peninsulas coast, plus it’s close to Phillip Island so we’ve seen lots of adorable penguins in their natural habitat! My employers have been so incredibly welcoming and you really feel like part of the family working here, I would throughly recommending it to anyone looking for a working holiday with horses. The two dogs on site are also really fun and love to have cuddles and explore the beach with you!
