Gippslander’s July in Review: A Huge Month for Local Jobs

For Job Seekers Published on July 31

We knew things were picking up… but July? July was next level.

Just under 7000 job views and 586 job applications — easily our biggest month yet.

If you posted a job, applied for one, or even just had a scroll to see what’s out there — thank you. Gippslanders showed up in force, and it proves exactly why a local job site like this one matters.

We’re pretty chuffed (and yes, we might’ve high-fived the dog).

Here’s what went down…

The Most Popular Job Categories in July 🔥

We saw searches across all sorts of industries, but these five took the cake:

  1. Administration and Support
  2. Construction and Trades
  3. Retail and Hospitality
  4. Community and Social Services
  5. Healthcare and Medical

Whether you’re after office work, hands-on roles, or something in the care sector — Gippslanders are out there looking and applying.

It’s a reminder that behind every job ad is a person, a family, a story. And we're here to help those stories connect.

Why It Matters 💚

Gippslander isn’t just another job board — it’s locally owned and operated, built specifically for our region. No head office in the city, no generic listings from who-knows-where. Just real jobs for real people across Gippsland.

And judging by July? It’s working.
