Hiring Irish Workers in Australia: The Irish Around Oz Job Board and Groups (2026)

Ah go on, give it a share!

For over 10 years, the Irish Around Oz Facebook groups have been where Irish people in Australia look for work, and where employers who want Irish staff come to find them. Here is how hiring through us works in 2026, and where to look if you are the one job hunting.

For employers: where your job goes

Premium employers post jobs straight into our Facebook groups, approved instantly, and get free listings on the Irish Around Oz job board. These are the groups and their sizes in October 2026:

  • Irish Around Sydney: 157,000+ members, with close to 5,000 posts a month
  • Irish Around Melbourne: 79,000+ members
  • Irish Around Perth: 54,000+ members
  • Irish Moving To Australia: 34,000+ members
  • Irish Around Brisbane: 34,000+ members
  • Irish Around Sydney 2: 26,000+ members
  • Irish Around Oz Jobs: 21,000+ members

Plenty of people are in more than one group, but together they reach over 250,000 Irish people across every major city.

What it costs

  • Monthly: AUD 200 a month. Cancel anytime, no contract.
  • Yearly: AUD 2,000 a year, which works out at two months free.

Both plans include:

  • Unlimited job posts across all Irish Around Oz groups
  • Instant approval in every group after the first set-up
  • Free listings on the job board
  • Up to 5 people from your company on one subscription
  • Priority support by Facebook or email

Only Premium subscribers can post jobs in the groups. Job posts from anyone else are not approved, which keeps the groups useful for the people reading them.
