SUNSHINE Coast Council and Study Sunshine Coast have partnered to launch the Sunshine Coast Jobs Hub, a new and free platform designed to connect job seekers with the region’s most sought-after jobs, industries and locations.
Since its launch in December 2022, the Jobs Hub has garnered close to 1,000 job listings, attracting significant interest from early users who are spending an average of 3.27 minutes on the site, viewing almost nine pages per session, which is well above industry benchmarking statistics.
The most sought-after job over the past two months included a program events and social media coordinator at NatureArt Lab in Maroochydore.
This was followed by customer service and contact centre manager roles at IT and Services giant Genpact, a glazier position, ranger position, registered nurse at an intensive care unit at Birtinya, surveyor position in Maleny, commercial attendant at Sea Life Mooloolaba, support officer with Sunshine Coast Council and team member at Officeworks, all of which demonstrate the diversity of job opportunities on offer.
Mayor Mark Jamieson said the Jobs Hub was developed in collaboration with business and industry representatives to help the region thrive. The Jobs Hub also has a student jobs section for students and graduates to connect with industry and job opportunities.
