As soon as you arrive in Australia it’s very likely that you’ll be offered a casual contract and, therefore, you can work in multiple places. After gaining some experience you’ll be able to find a stable job.

The barman’s responsibility is to prepare and serve drinks and cocktails in clubs, bars, restaurants and hotels. You will usually work shifts, mostly afternoons and evenings on weekends and holidays (where you will generally earn more).

Tipping is not compulsory in Australia, but some customers still will. These tips can have a great influence on your pay and that’s why you can earn a bit of money as a barman.

Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Gold Coast and Perth are all optimal destination for barmen, however for those that want to dedicate themselves to this work need to consider season while choosing their destination since this field depends on tourists even in Australia!
