Alice Springs
The Northern Territory is one of the most culturally diverse places in the world.
Alice Springs (Mparntwe) is a beautiful town located in the heart of Australia, known for its stunning natural beauty, rich cultural heritage, with strong Indigenous presence and vibrant community and art scene. The town is surrounded by stunning red desert landscapes, dotted with ancient rock formations, and home to a vast array of unique flora and fauna.
Alice Springs attracts visitors from all over the world, be it for the quirky and humorous Henley-On-Todd Regatta, camel racing, or the many opportunities to learn about the local Arrernte culture.
In this role you will have the privilege of working closely with local and aboriginal families and the experience of immersing yourself in an amazing part of the world.
This is an extraordinary opportunity to learn about yourself, other cultures and grow professionally at the same time as making a positive difference in the lives of others.
