Tasmania has much to offer - spectacular scenery, unique flora and fauna, a refreshing climate and a rich heritage, all in a tranquil and inviting atmosphere. Most importantly, Hobart offers a lifestyle unsurpassed by other major population centres in Australia. Tasmania offers unique lifestyle advantages including...

House prices tend to be lower, particularly if you are relocating from Sydney, Melbourne or Canberra.

A relocation allowance may be available for successful interstate applicants..

Unique recreation opportunities
Enjoying four distinct seasons, Tasmania averages 12 degrees in winter and 23 degrees in summer. This makes it easy to enjoy the wide range of recreational pursuits available. Many Tasmanians live less than one hour's drive from either a beach or a World Heritage Wilderness area. Tasmania has produced Olympic and Commonwealth Games representatives in a number of areas. Most team and individual sports have clubs and associations within the State. Hobart is one of the most exciting, lively and innovative arts centres in Australia, home to many artists, crafts people and visual and performing arts organisations.
