Amazon Australia plans to onboard more than 1,000 seasonal workers for the mid-year sales season, with jobs available at its fulfilment centres (FCs) and logistics sites across the country. Alternatively, for those who prefer a more flexible work arrangement, there are earning opportunities delivering packages with Amazon Flex.

The company is looking for seasonal workers with a range of skill sets and experience to help pick, pack, sort and ship customer orders, with applications open now for roles at Amazon sites in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide. Seasonal roles may present opportunities to subsequently apply for permanent employment and start a long-term career at Amazon.

Amazon Australia director of operations, Mindy Espidio-Garcia said, “We are looking for motivated and enthusiastic people to join our team over the mid-season sales period. There are more than 1,000 roles available at our sites across the country and we provide on-the-job training so no previous experience is required. We urge anyone looking for a fulfilling, short term role in a safe, exciting and positive work environment to apply.

“People are at the heart of our operations, and our peak periods are an exciting time to be part of the team. We make the busy fun. It is by prioritising our people, that we are then able to deliver a world class experience for our customers.”

For those who want the flexibility to work when it suits them and earn extra money, Amazon Flex allows people to earn supplementary income by delivering Amazon packages to customers using their own vehicle. Amazon Flex delivery partners can choose delivery block times that suit their schedules and are paid weekly.
