More than 2,000 transport and logistics vacancies on new Government jobs hub

The transport and logistics sectors is well represented on a new free Government jobs hub launched this week with more than 2,000 industry-specific listings included on the site including many for delivery and interstate drivers.

Minister for Employment, Skills, Small and Family Business, Senator the Hon Michaelia Cash, said the Government was continuing to do everything it could to keep Australians connected to the workforce. “These are critical jobs that will contribute to keeping the economy going and keeping as many Australians in work as possible,” she said.

While many businesses have been adversely affected by COVID-19 and are reducing their workforces, there are some areas of the economy which have an increased demand for workers.

These include jobs in a range of sectors and occupations including health and care sectors, transport and logistics, some areas of retail, mining and mining services, manufacturing, agriculture and government sectors, among others.

“I continue to work with employers, industry peak organisations, employment services providers and others in the labour market to identify where the jobs are and help move people looking for work into these jobs quickly.”
