Sometimes, a great career move means more than just changing roles.
Moving to a whole new area can open up a lot of job opportunities, with the added bonus of a better lifestyle, and Mildura is one place that makes a lot of sense if you’re an early childhood professional who’s keen to work with Goodstart.
Mildura is a friendly regional city where career opportunities abound for childcare people, and if you’re open to an amazing new role in a picturesque setting, here are 6 reasons to make the move to Mildura!
1. The Victorian government is offering generous financial incentives.
One of the biggest reasons to consider moving to Mildura to work as an educator or teacher in the Three-Year-Old Kindergarten program, is the financial carrot being offered by the Victorian government.
You may be eligible for a generous individual incentive of up to $9,000, plus thousands of dollars in relocation support, as part of the government's efforts to attract educators to regional areas, and this cash is definitely appealing!
2. Mildura has a really great community.
Although it’s a city (with all the facilities you need), Mildura is a close-knit place where residents are known for being friendly and there’s a genuine sense of community.
This welcoming vibe will make it much easier to settle into your new life, and every early learning role comes with a ready-made community of children, parents and colleagues that you can soon be a part of.
3. This regional city offers a lot of lifestyle benefits.
Mildura is a great place to live and work, thanks to its relaxed lifestyle and nice climate.
The region is known for its access to the Murray River, which is ideal for water sports and outdoor activities, and there are plenty of cultural and recreational things happening, too.
Mildura has a buzzing scene when it comes to wining, dining, art and culture, and there’s the opportunity to explore local galleries, wineries, music events, and outdoor festivals.
4. Your pay packet may go further in Mildura.
The cost of living in Mildura is generally more affordable than in major metropolitan areas, like Melbourne, and this means you can choose a role because it’s inspiring – not just because it will pay the big rent on your little city pad!
Having more affordable living costs also means there’s more cash to spend on enjoyable things, like the art and culture mentioned above.
