What industries are hiring in Brisbane?
Brisbane's economy is broad and growing. Government, state, federal, and local council, is a consistent source of contract and permanent roles, particularly in policy, administration, IT, and project management. Construction and infrastructure is expanding significantly, with major projects across South East Queensland. Logistics and distribution has strong and sustained demand, particularly for trades, warehousing, and driver roles in the outer suburban and industrial corridors. Resources and mining services are also active, with Brisbane serving as the management and services hub for many Queensland mining operations.
How can I improve my chances of getting a job in Brisbane?
Tailoring your application to each specific role makes the biggest difference, a generic resume rarely gets past initial screening. Ensure your CV clearly reflects relevant skills and measurable outcomes rather than just listing responsibilities. For trades and technical roles, keeping licences and tickets current is essential; a lapsed White Card or expired certification can remove you from consideration immediately. If you're looking to enter a new sector, taking a temporary or contract role is often the most effective way in, as many of our clients convert strong performers to permanent positions.
