Employment Hero, the global leader in managing employment, has today announced a listing for the world’s first ‘Sunset Supervisor’, in partnership with the idyllic Fitzroy Island Resort in Queensland.
Dropping today via the new EH Jobs site and app - which instantly matches job seekers to 1.5 million+ roles based on skills, interests and experience (no more handing out resumes) - the job will see one lucky candidate oversee ‘semi-aquatic evening operations’ (read: watch the sunset on the beach).
It’s no secret the job market has seen tumultuous times recently, especially for younger job seekers. Employment Hero data drawn from more than 1.1 million employees and 300,000 businesses, shows Gen Z is working 2.3% more hours year on year.
However, Employment Hero data also shows a strong uptick in Gen Z hiring (15.9% YoY) and wages (7.2% YoY), with Queensland leading the charge in hiring at a 15.3% increase YoY.
To capitalise on this, Employment Hero and Fitzroy Island Resort have created the Sunset Supervisor role, a dream opportunity in the Sunshine State, designed to make work feel easier, more valuable and a whole lot more memorable.
Better still, it’s one of the great opportunities to drop on Employment Hero’s new EH Jobs app, which is made for mobile-first Aussies who structure their work around life, meaning you could find a job while you’re commuting, waiting for a friend at a cafe, or scrolling on the couch.
Employment Hero’s David Holland says:
"Employment Hero is revolutionising the way businesses connect with job seekers. We’ve created a first-of-its-kind technology that deeply integrates into a business's existing HR systems to provide matches with talent based on a wide range of factors, to not only find the best employees for businesses, but also the best roles for job seekers, such as the Sunset Supervisor.
"The average hiring spend for an SME is $13,545, with 60% of businesses saying they’ve had a new hire leave within the first month. The technology behind EH Jobs saves an average of two weeks in the recruitment process, with hires happening in as little as 18 minutes for a trial shift, which is why Australians everywhere need to get in quick if they want to land this dream job with Fitzroy Island Resort”.
The addition of recruitment to Employment Hero’s offering makes it the first organisation in the world to offer an all-in-one solution when it comes to the lifecycle of an employee.
The Aussie-founded tech unicorn has evolved from HR and payroll to an all-in-one Employment Operating System, consolidating everything employment (including access to ready-to-work talent) into a single platform.
Job seekers' profiles are shown to top employers before they even advertise a role, matching talent with opportunities to create a win-win situation for all.
The ‘Sunset Supervisor’ role will be a three-day dream-job experience that involves watching sunsets, creating content and giving a brand new meaning to working on island time. The winner will score flights and accommodation to get them to this little slice of paradise, with a reward package valued at more than $4000.
"We’re lucky to have around 80% of our staff living and working on Fitzroy Island. It’s a design that allows us to provide exceptional customer service to our guests with an emphasis on safety and collaboration.,” says Rodney Chamma, Fitzroy Island Resort Manager.
"The Sunset Supervisor will be no exception - we expect someone who will watch that special moment on the island each day like a hawk and enjoy every minute of it.
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to connect with nature, capture moments of calm and remind people that the future of work can be both fulfilling and imaginative,” David concludes.
