DEPARTMENT FOR EDUCATION

From the year 2022, year 7 students will be part of South Australian high schools, further demarcating our own childhoods as from a time very, very long ago.

GAGE ROADS BREWING COMPANY

We do not mind a beer (or five) here at CityMag, and if you’re similarly inclined, there’s an opportunity for you to spruik your love of the golden good stuff on behalf of one of the country’s largest craft breweries.

The company is looking for someone from either a liquor sales or hospitality background, who is connected to Adelaide’s hospitality community, and loves all things beer.

The winning applicant will continue the brewery’s existing relationships, as well as develop new relationships with owners and managers of retail bottle shops, bars, pubs, taverns and everything in between.

It sounds a lot to us like hanging out and talking about beer all day.

VITERRA

As a city-based publication, we’re a little bit ashamed to admit we had no idea we’re currently amidst the South Australian grain harvest season.

It is, of course, necessary to respecting the connection between our plates and our regions, but this factoid passed us by – until, that is, Viterra emailed this week to notify us that their harvest callout for workers is officially on.

The company will employ 1,800 people nationally for the grain harvest, many right here in South Australia. Potential roles include general grain handling, bunker operation, weighbridge operation, grain classification, supervisory roles, as well as some customer-facing roles.

Viterra takes care of 55 sites across South Australia and western Victoria, and the work will go from October through to January 2021.

For more information on the harvest work, see this page.

STONE & CHALK

Earlier this month, CityMag offered a glimpse into some of Adelaide’s most beautiful new buildings, one of which was Stone & Chalk, the not-for-profit organisation responsible for developing growth and support frameworks for emerging tech sectors.

The Adelaide outpost of the company is located in the Allied Health Building at Lot Fourteen, and their workspace took out a heritage commendation in the sustainable architecture award.

But this is beside the point. We bring up Stone & Chalk in this week’s jobs blog because they’re hiring. And we think you’d be perfect.

The company is looking for a hub coordinator, who will act as the public face of Stone & Chalk and the Lot Fourteen Innovation Precinct.

“The Hub Coordinator wears many hats and plays a critical role in supporting Stone & Chalk’s event, operations and community teams across multiple areas,” the business’ website says.

SIMEC ENERGY

Work on the long-awaited 280-megawatt Cultana Solar Farm in South Australia could begin as early as July. The project is on a 1,100ha site north of Whyalla on Eyre Peninsula and is of such magnitude that it has officially* been dubbed a doozy.

The project is the first large-scale project in plan to generate one gigawatt of dispatchable renewable energy in South Australia.

SIMEC Energy Australia is part of billionaire industrialist Sanjeev Gupta’s GFG Alliance and is delivering the project through an engineer, procure and construction (EPC) partnership with Shanghai Electric.

We wrote about a portion of Gupta’s plan through the lens of South Australian battery and renewable technology firm, Zen Energy in 2018.

This is absolutely the company of the future, and they’ve got 700 job openings. So, yeah, apply here!

SA PRIMARY INDUSTRIES

A new jobs campaign targeting South Australians to do seasonal work in the primary industries sector such as fruit picking and grape harvesting, was launched recently by the Marshall Government to help boost regional economies dealing with the impacts of the coronavirus.

If you – like us – have often romanticised the idea of getting off grid and living off the land – then this is your opportunity (if you need work right now) to test your mettle against the reality of working in agriculture.

The Seasonal Jobs SA website will connect jobseekers with jobs and agencies sourcing workers across agricultural jobs in the state, providing information on roles and requirements, places to stay, coronavirus restrictions and more.

THE UNKNOWN MAN – FILM PRODUCTION

Crime thriller, “The Unknown Man” has been confirmed to shoot in South Australia, when film productions resume after the coronavirus crisis.

The crime thriller stars Joel Edgerton (Animal Kingdom, The Great Gatsby, Boy Erased) and UK star Sean Harris (The King, Mission Impossible: Fallout, Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation).

The Unknown Man producer Rachel Gardner says, “this is a challenging time for our industry, particularly for crew, but we are gearing up to move straight into production on The Unknown Man, which will be shooting in and around Adelaide, as soon as is practicable.”

And we know there’ll be jobs on set with this production company, as it’s the second time they’ve visited sunny South Australia.

“We are delighted to welcome See Saw Films back to South Australia with The Unknown Man after they previously embraced our locations and talent with their stunning production of Tracks in 2013,” says CEO of the South Australian Film Corporation Kate Croser.

“Such a major production presents significant opportunities for South Australian crew and screen service providers from right across the sector, and the SAFC is working closely with producers to ensure the best outcomes for our local talent.”

Production dates for The Unknown Man will be determined at a future time, pending the ongoing Covid-19 emergency.

Various roles will be available on the production for South Australian crew and extras. Experienced SA crew and talent are invited to submit expressions of interest and their CV to the production for consideration here.

Experienced South Australian crew and screen service providers are also encouraged to register and/or update their details in the SAFC’s Crew and Services Directory – a free, searchable database that provides information about local screen industry professionals and support services.

BHP

Seldom on Twitter, we saw a recent post from BHP advertising it would be hiring for 1,500 positions across their Australian operations as a response to COVID-19.

After spending a protracted amount of time grimacing at the responses on Twitter from well-meaning dolts asking BHP to “please stop destroying Australia to extract fossil fuels” and “Please support renewables” (what do they think wind turbines and solar PV is made out of), we found the relevant links to find out just what kinds of jobs BHP is hiring for right now.

We are hiring 1,500 new workers to support our people and our business during these difficult times.
