Length of Position: 3 months with possible further work

Description: This is the most popular programme we have ever had! We are now looking at the 2010 programme and your paid horticulture/ harvest job guaranteed before you arrive in Australia.

In 2009 we had 80 places on the Horticulture/ Harvest Work programme starting June/ July and we had huge interest in the programme, with all places being filled well ahead of time.

Because of the great workers on the 2009 programme from UK, Ireland, German, France, Belgium, Sweden, Finland, Canada, USA, Italy, in 2010 we will again have 80 places but we have managed to reduce the price from GBP 650 to just GBP 399 which is great for you! But it does mean that the 80 positions will sell out even faster next year!

So we have introduced a pre-registration stage for 2010 so that we know what numbers will be like well ahead of time and can therefore request more positions for our applicants. If you would like to send an enquiry through this website we can reply with further details and a pre-registration form for you.

If you are looking to start outside of the main starting dates, we will need to pass your details by our Australian office, but this should not be a problem.

For 2010 we have at least 80 paid positions available which will be filled on a first come first served basis. This is broken down into three start dates:

1st of June (South Australia) - 40 Jobs
15th of June (Victoria) - 20 Jobs
1st of July (Western Australia) - 20 Jobs

You are guaranteed 3 months of work from the above dates and you will be paid A dollar 17 per hour or more and you can work between 38 and 50 hours per week.   You will also receive a 9% pension contribution which you can transfer home at the end of your Working Holiday.
