Major e-commerce company looking to hire hundreds of workers ahead of seasonal sales

Amazon Australia has announced it will hire 850 seasonal workers across the country ahead of its annual July sale, Prime Day.

The work involves picking, packing and shipping orders from the company's warehouses across the country.

About half the roles are in Sydney, as well as more than 100 in Melbourne and Perth and smaller numbers in Brisbane and Adelaide. A full list of the roles on offer can be found below.

Michelle Theophilou, a senior HR manager, said no experience was required.

"We provide all training on-site, so no experience is required, and over the years we've welcomed many people who have never set foot in a warehouse before," she said.

"All we're looking for is enthusiasm and a willingness to get involved."

Prime Day is Amazon's annual shopping event exclusive to Prime members.

At the beginning of last year, the Australia Institute found more than one million Australians were working two or more jobs.

  • In Sydney, Amazon is hiring for 435 roles across its fulfilment centres and delivery stations, including across its facilities in Kemps Creek, Horsley Park, Chullora, Eastern Creek, West Gosford and Bella Vista.
