So much to explore in the Souther NSW region

The majestic Snowy Mountains, the sparkling Sapphire Coast, the verdant Yass Valley, the Great Dividing Range and the Southern Tablelands - all highlight the unique area that is the Southern NSW region. You'll find a thriving beef and dairy industry that began in the 1850s in Bega, the cheese capital of Australia. In Goulburn, the Big Merino is a symbol of the 200-year-old local wool industry.

Follow the oyster trail from Bermagui to Wonboyn; fish, surf and kayak in Bateman's Bay; spot platypus in Bombala; see the remnants of early pioneer life in Delegate; marvel at the Snowy Hydro dams in Cooma and Khancoban; visit the Mogo Zoo; ski, mountain bike or hike in Kosciuszko National Park; and pan for gold or pick some cherries in Young. Resident wildlife includes kangaroos, wallabies, possums, bandicoots, sea eagles, parrots, lyrebirds and wombats.

The area is home to more than 200,000 residents, including four large Aboriginal nations: Gundungurra, Ngunnawal, Ngarigo and Yuin. The population is expected to keep growing, with the fastest-growing age group being aged 65 and over. Affordable housing, wide-open spaces, plenty to do and see, arts and cultural events, and a rich history are what attract people to become residents of the area.

Where you'll be working - Moruya

Moruya, NSW, is a charming country town nestled on the banks of the picturesque Moruya River. Located on the South Coast of New South Wales, Moruya offers an idyllic escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. With its rich history, stunning natural landscapes, and a variety of activities, Moruya is a perfect destination for travelers seeking both relaxation and adventure.

Although being the smallest of the three major towns on the Eurobodalla Coast, Moruya is the administrative centre of the shire - home to the council offices and other public institutions, such as the Moruya College of TAFE. The historical selection of Moruya for these institutions arises partly from the fact that Moruya lies near the geographical centre of the Eurobodalla Shire, which runs from Batemans Bay in the north to Tilba in the south and also because Moruya is one of the older towns in the region.
