Findings from the 2025 Australia Accommodation Barometer show that there is a clear disconnect between hiring frequency and talent availability.

In stark contrast, administrative support, event planning, and sales and marketing positions present the most significant recruitment challenges, all categorized as high scarcity roles despite being only occasional hiring needs.
