Western Australia is urging hospitality and tourism workers from the rest of Australia and New Zealand to consider moving to the state, as it grapples with a skills shortage ahead of summer.
WA Premier Mark McGowan announced a major campaign, Discover the Other Side, to attract chefs, wait staff, baristas, bar tenders, managers and tour operators ahead of summer.
"Summer is the busiest time of year for our local hospitality and tourism industries, so the timing of this campaign is critical to help attract young workers to WA.
"With our strong and thriving economy, relaxed lifestyle and great attractions, there's no better time to make the move to WA and work in these high-demand industries.
"As someone who relocated to WA for work in my twenties and has remained here ever since, I can safely say it was one of the best decisions I've ever made."
The campaign has been developed with key industry and government bodies, including Tourism WA and the WA Australian Hotels Association.
It builds on the state's Life in WA campaign launched nationally last year to target skilled workers in the construction and manufacturing industries, which was expanded to the United Kingdom and Ireland.
