First Personnel seeks local applicants first. However, this is not to say that we rule out all international candidates. Some positions (especially specialist roles) may require that we look outside of Australia in order to find the best possible match. If you fall into this category, you will need to provide us with your visa details as well as your permit to work within Australia.

Please note: We MUST require compliance with Australian certification standards where applicable.
