Employers

There's a huge mobile workforce going past your door right now.

And they're looking for opportunities. Highly skilled, experienced people who want to work and also stop and stay a little longer.

Being a family farming enterprise, we found this site a fantastic tool to find a seasonal employee for the harvest season. We will definitely use this site again. Thankyou!

Hi there Graham
I've used the noticeboard several times. We have had great responses and found suitable people to caretake the station homestead complex while we went away for fuel and meat as we were in drought – nice to know there are some generous people out there still. Thanks for a great sight – and thanks grey nomads !!!!
cheers Natalie

Graham, I believe you have a great site for all. For us as a developing sustainable tourist location we have had success with advertising on your site with the personnel received at Boshack .

I have used this site two years ago and found a lovely couple who looked after my cattery for me. I have recently advertised for someone to do the same this year and had a reply within days these people sound perfect and I am looking forward to meeting them.

Thank you so much for your efforts. We found a couple quite perfect for us and they have been “repeat” sitters. We regard them almost as family and hold them in great affection. Keep up the good work!

Hi Graham,
We have used the site to advertise for Managers/Caretakers for our small Cabin Park in a remote area. We have found it the ONLY place we need to go to. It is a great service for us and for the people we find. Well done .
Thanks.

We have loved the experience of having grey nomads stay with us and we still keep in contact with both couples who came out and spent 3 months at a time here. We expect that they will be both visit us again.
Running a cattle business as well as a coaching business and raising toddlers at the same time has been a challenge on our own. Having the grey nomads here to pitch in, in whatever way they felt comfortable, has been a huge help. It was a different routine both times, working to everyone’s interests and abilities. We’ll be placing more ads in the future. Each time we do, we extend our family.

I used this website over 6 months ago to find a farmhand & he’s still with us doing a great job. Willing worker & quick to learn new things. Would employ a more mature worker over a younger person any day. They seem to look after the machinery better.

Greynomadsjobs.com was recommended to me by a friend who has had great success and lots of fun meeting those who come through her property near Eidsvold. I found the site easy to use, the moderators easy to get on with and always genuine responses to my ads.

I would use the site again in the past the school has employed grey nomads for short and long term projects and they have proved to be very valuables members of the school team.

Thank you for your great work.

We have used this site on when seeking caretakers. We have been impressed by the number and quality of applicants who have applied and will use the site again when required.

How to get more Job Offers

By

I should say this more often. There are more employers on this site making OFFERS than posting ADS.

That means that you really, really need to have something meaningful in your resume section.

Like you, employers want information. So if they search for nomads and there is no information then they skip to the next person!

All you have to do is LOG IN and go to the My Resume part and fill it in:

Make sure you:

  1. Choose a Category
  2. Put in a Short but Specific Headline
  3. Put as much in the Profile Summary as possible
  4. Press Save

Like this:

Employers are looking every day, so if you are blank – you are missing out.

How to get Grey Nomads Jobs

By

If you have registered as a candidate there are some things that will help you get grey nomads jobs.

Here’s something important to know.

80% of jobs filled are never advertised.

That’s because most employers are like you and me. They want things now!

They go straight to the Browse Nomads Available section or do a Skills Search by Keyword to get in contact with someone they know can do the job.

If they don’t find anyone they might place an ad. Or they just might come back tomorrow and search again.

So for every job that is advertised, there are another 4 getting filled without you knowing about it.

So how does the smart nomads get grey nomads jobs?

  1. Register. You won’t have a hope if you can’t be found!
  2. Make sure you fill in at least something in your profile.
    The minimum should be your Professional Headline.
    This is the bit that employers see in the Browse Page.
    So if you are a baker with 36 years experience all over Australia, I would suggest you put in: Baker with 36 years experience all over Australia!
    In other words, tell them what you do.
  3. You should also fill in the bit that says roughly where and when you intend being somewhere.

The really smart nomads who get grey nomads jobs first are the ones that say a LOT!

Let’s face it. Employers don’t want to waste time. It is easier for them to scan though a lot of information on your profile than to contact you and then find out that you don’t fit the bill.

So they go for the people who are detailed in their profile first.

And usually they find someone.

Why some people don’t get grey nomads jobs offers.

Now many people put in – “can do anything” or something similar. That’s a trap. Avoid it.

These employers already know you can do anything. They want to know if you can do something specific. They don’t search by a keyword that is “anything”.

Employers search with specifics such as “tinker” or “tailor” or “brain surgeon”.
