Your career in tourism and hospitality starts here!

Western Australia’s tourism and hospitality industry is as big, bright and diverse as the state itself. From the coast to the outback, city laneways to regional gems, there are opportunities to work in places most people only dream of visiting.

A newly updated Careers Guide is now available, which is designed to help you explore the possibilities. Whether you’re looking for your first job, planning a career change, or returning to the workforce, this guide outlines the many roles on offer — from tour guiding and Aboriginal tourism to hotel management, events, and food and beverage.

You’ll find practical information on training pathways, including learning on the job, studying online, or completing a course at TAFE or university. The guide also features real-life career stories, so you can see what it’s like to work in the industry and what skills you’ll need to succeed.

Tourism and hospitality roles are as varied as they are rewarding. You could be leading visitors through breathtaking landscapes, creating memorable dining experiences, organising major events, or welcoming guests from around the world. Whatever your interest, there’s a pathway that can match your skills and ambitions.

If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to build a career in an industry where no two days are the same, now’s the time to find out.
