Guest craigngail Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Hi everyone We are in the process of planning a move to Cairns towards the end of the year.We moved to Perth 2 years ago and prior to that we lived in Darwin for 5 years.Since living in Perth we have realized we prefer the tropics more especially to raise our 18 month son.I was just after some information on job prospects for Boilermakers/Foreman in Cairns.

Guest Cairnswanabe Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Hi. We are in a similar situation. We have been in perth for 4 years but love Cairns and the only thing holding us back is the job uncertainty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest craigngail Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Hi Cairnswanabe I have spoke to friends in Cairns and they have said that there is work in Cairns if you want to work.It might not be the perfect job to start with but once their you can look around.I have sent a few emails to various firms but I think its the type of place that you would get more response if you are already relocated.We have also been looking at Townsville seems to be a bit more work around.

Guest damon79 Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Finding work in Cairns can be hard for a white collar professional, but not so much for a blue collar or tradesmen. Keep your eyes peeled for jobs and you'll find something will pop up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest craigngail Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Thanks for the info Damon79.We are still in Perth at the moment had a few delays at this end,but we are planning on being over in Cairns in the next few months after we sell our property.

Guest tantrumtot Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 We are considering moving also from Perth. Definitely the job availability is a concern, curious to know how you get along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stephy_D Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Hi Everyone, I am very keen to relocate to Cairns from Adelaide. Does anybody have updates on how they went with their move? I'd love to hear more prior to making a move myself. My experience is in administration, customer service and retail. There don't appear to be many permanent positions available in these fields.
