Hi
We are about to do the same thing in may, here's another website with information that may interest you Workabout Australia

Never know we might meet along the track somewhere?

Cheers

Just keep your ear to the ground whilst travelling. You will find signs up in Service stations and tourism centres as well.

I was an IT manager before I retired and ended up baby sitting a cattle station for 5 months. As long as you can do a bit of work it is everywhere up the top and across to the west.

Mightn't find much in management positions though.

In a lot of places the owners of businesses find it difficult to go on holidays because of the lack of people with any management qualifications and experience capable of running the business in their absence.

There are plenty of people who whilst travelling have ended up running a business for a while whilst the owners have a holiday.

Just to expand a little on that last post....my wife and I are Relief Managers and do just that.

We specialize in motels as a management couple and have had numerous enquiries from caravan and tourist parks as well.

We're working around 35 weeks of the year and touring with our 100 sries and new Kimberley Kamper for the other 17 weeks.

Our rates vary from motel to motel as they are all different, however we have a range of daily rates ranging from $165.00-$220.00 on a 7 day week basis and the motel owner accommodates us in either a standard unit on the property near reception or usually in the property residence. The motel also provides us with all meals from their larder or in house reastaurant or by means of a cash float.

We currently have enough work to keep us going for the next 2 years from our "Regulars"......this also factors in HOLIDAZE for us as well.

Having May & June in the Red Centre this year and maybe August accross the Gulf.

For more info, take a look at our web site at www.reliefmanagers.com.

As a management professional, this type of work may suit you better.

Our e-mail is on our web site on our contact page....I built the web site myself and marketed it to motels in the early days....After 3 weeks, we had 9 months of work bookings ahead of us.

Hope this helps
Warm regards to all
Rick & Julie
Relief Managers

Hi

My wife (registered nurse) and I (electrician) are on a working holiday around Australia and find work relatively easy to find. Try this website
