Adzuna is a jobs search engine designed to make it easier to hunt for the right job, make decisions about your career and find the best person for your company fit.

Founded in the UK in 2011 by former Gumtree executives, adzuna.com.au now attracts more than 6million visitors a month across 11 countries.

Fairfax Media launched the Australian arm of Adzuna in capital cities last year and from Monday, April 20, the concept comes to regional and rural areas.

Jobseekers who search online through southernhighlandnews.com.au will not only see local listings but can click through to adzuna.com.au where they will find more than 130,000 live vacancies (and the number is tipped to grow) across the country.

Filter the search results by industry, region, salary or working hours. 

Or make use of the site’s real-time employment market data and social job hunting tools to really take control of your career. 

It’s all free to use.

If you are looking to fill a vacancy, you can continue to place your “position vacant” ad in your local paper, knowing it will not only appear on the paper’s website but also as a priority listing on adzuna.com.au, giving you a greater opportunity of finding the best candidate.

“As a team, we love using the awesome power of technology to help match people to better, more fulfilling jobs,” Adzuna Australia boss Raife Watson said. 

“We are delighted to be working with Fairfax to provide a real alternative to existing employment products and services.”
