Learn why, and how HARKE can help you make the move with confidence.
Thinking about teaching in Australia? With Term 3 just around the corner, now is the ideal time for New Zealand educators to explore new classroom opportunities across NSW, VIC, QLD, and the Northern Territory. HARKE Recruitment works with top schools across these states to place qualified NZ teachers in permanent and fixed-term roles—and we’re ready to help you take the leap.
Why Term 3?
Mid-Year Intake Means Less Competition
Many teachers wait for Term 1 to apply. Applying now for Term 3 gives you a head start, with less competition and more personalised school placement options.
Settle In Before the New Year Rush
Moving mid-year allows you to ease into the Australian education system and establish yourself before the busy Term 1 hiring cycle begins.
Great Weather, Great Lifestyle
A winter move means mild conditions in most states—ideal for relocating and exploring your new community before the summer break.
Where We Place Teachers
We partner with Independent, Catholic, and Government schools across:
New South Wales (NSW)
Victoria (VIC)
Queensland (QLD)
Northern Territory (NT)
Each region offers unique experiences—from coastal cities to regional centers—and we’ll help match you to a role and lifestyle that fits your goals.
