When you’re ready for a Working Holiday but don't need all the bells and whistles of our premium trips, Global has got you covered.
Introducing Working Holiday Australia (Lite) – an arrival service designed to get you settled in, without the job match included. You’ll get access to our custom-made job board, specifically designed for travellers like you, so you can take the next steps on your own.
So while it’s up to you to land your own job, we make it super easy for you.
And in true Global style, included in your trip is all the important stuff like:
This is the Working Holiday for you if you’re a resourceful traveller but you don’t wanna wing it completely.
Because you know relying on the experience of those who came before you will make your trip that much better.
We’re not throwing you into the job searching market in a foreign country with no help. You’ll get access to our one-of-a-kind job board – designed specifically to help you find a job that matches the experience you want, even if you’re totally unfamiliar with Australia and all its diverse locations.
You can forget about boring job filters like ‘Location’ or ‘Experience level’. And instead focus on what you’re most excited about doing in Australia, and find yourself a job that helps you get paid to do it. We scour the internet for the jobs working holidaymakers want, and can get, and bring them to you.
So with the power of the coolest job board on this side of the internet, it’ll be much easier to find yourself the perfect job for your Working Holiday.
Plus – you’ll get to start your trip with a whole bunch of fun stuff lined up and 3 nights at the best hostel in town to make friends from the start.
Most travellers book their trips 6-12 months in advance. Dates are flexible but capacity is limited – so don’t leave it ‘til the last minute.

Our Working Holiday trips are designed to help you save you time, money, and stress while eliminating the risk of returning home early.
You’ll get a full-on arrival package so you’re not hoping for the best when you arrive.
You’ll also get access to the best job board for Working Holidayers out there. We know, because we designed it with travellers just like you in mind.
Working Holiday jobs are not like other jobs. So why should you have to rely on the regular, boring old job boards with filters that simply don’t match your travel goals?
With access to our Working Holiday job board, you don’t have to. Using advanced AI technology, we’ve scoured the internet for open jobs that will be available when you go on your trip, saving you time and effort. Our job board is tailored to provide you with job listings that are intelligently matched to your preferences, so you can focus on the adventure, not the search.
We know your experience is probably more important than the job itself. So you can filter jobs based specifically on the experience you’re most excited about having on your Working Holiday.
If you’re keen to get stuck into that famous Aussie beach culture but have no idea where to start, you can filter your job search by Tropical & Beachside or Surf & Beach Culture.
If you’d rather be immersed in the buzzing urban scene but don’t know which city is right for you, filter by City Buzz or Music & Arts Hubs.
There are 20 different filters you can choose from, based on Climate & Environment preferences or Lifestyle & Interest preferences. So you can filter by things like Outback & Remote, Backpacker Social Scene, or even Diving & Marine Adventures.
Thanks to the AI-powered matching technology, the job board is designed to be as intuitive as possible, helping you find your dream job on your working holiday in a location that best suits the lifestyle and experience you're after.
And when one job ends and you’ve used your saved-up cash to go on some wild adventure across the country, the job board will be there to help you find your next job.
But this trip isn’t all about your job. One of the most important things is growing your network ASAP so you can make lifelong connections with interesting people from all over the world.
Social will help you connect with fellow Global Travellers through our exclusive in-app social network. You will get access to this private community where you can message and meet other travellers before you even leave home, and of course, while you're on your trip. It’s the perfect place to organise meet-ups, make new friends, and get the lowdown on the best places to stay and things to see from travellers who are one step ahead of you.
So with your network sorted with potential job opportunities coming your way, what will you do about accommodation?
If your job doesn’t provide any staff accommodation, our resources will help you find a permanent place for you to stay!
If there’s an emergency, you can use our 24 hours a day, Monday – Friday Global Emergency Line for anything urgent.
Our team is well travelled so you can rely on our experience.
The first step can be the hardest, but we make sure every step after that is easy. So stop dreaming, start doing, and let’s turn your Working Holiday dream into reality.

While we would love to include flights and insurance in our trip packages, it is not feasible to have a fixed price due to the diverse destinations, trip durations, and individual coverage needs of our travellers from around the globe. However, once you register for the trip, we will assign you a dedicated Travel Concierge. They will work closely with you to arrange the ideal flights and insurance tailored to your specific adventure. Rest assured, our team is here to ensure you have a smooth and hassle-free travel experience from start to finish!
After the last unexpected disruption to travel caused by the..c word..people are now more eager than ever to venture out and explore the world, determined not to miss out on any experiences. Global Work & Travel works on a first-in-best-dressed basis. Booking earlier ensures that you don’t miss out on the best intake, season, placements and more! We recommend our travellers take 6-12+ months to plan their trip for a reason - to make sure you’ve got everything organised perfectly, stress-free. As a Global Traveller you’ll get exclusive access to gWorld, our personalised app where you can keep all of your important documents and trip details in one spot and gain insider access to everything Global. This is where you will find exclusive Marketplace Deals, a unique social network to connect you with other like-minded Global Travellers, access to our Academy with an ever-growing range of skills & languages, and so much more.

Absolutely! For most of our trips, we can help arrange for you and your friends to be together - so you can live, work, play, and explore the world side by side. But that’s not all! You can also earn extra travel funds just by referring your friends to Global Work & Travel. It’s super simple, and you’ll find all the details about our referral rewards program inside your gWorld account once you’ve joined. Flying solo? No worries. We’ve made it easier than ever to connect with other Global Travellers heading to the same region through Social. Just like any social platform, you’ll be able to chat, share, and meet others doing similar trips - so you’re never really travelling alone.
At Global Work & Travel, we share a deep love for animals and fully understand the special bond you have with your pet. We recognise the challenges of embarking on a trip without them. Due to travel restrictions, requirements, and limited pet-friendly accommodations among our host organisations, we regretfully cannot facilitate their inclusion in the journey. However, many of our customers choose to entrust their pets to a family member or friend, embark on their adventure, and return home to wagging tails and furry cuddles.
We know that life can get in the way of travel, so all our trips come with a great deal of flexibility. In most cases, if you cannot travel on your selected date, you can place your trip on hold to deal with whatever is holding you back, and continue in the future without incurring any penalty. You may also have the option of transferring to an entirely different trip and destination as well, or even transferring your trip to a friend or family member. In the event that you need to outright cancel your trip, if you give us 84* days notice you can do so with only a 50% cancellation fee. Your refund of the balance will come in the form of a Store Credit which you can put toward any other trip that we offer, including tours through third-party providers, as well as holidays through DealsAway.com, and is valid for 2 years from date of issue. As international travel can be complex, your options are based on the progress of your trip organisation and our support team can assist you in finding the best solution for your needs.
