Love travel and passionate about all things aviation. You’re in the right place. At Jetstar, you get to takeoff at work, and in life.
As a team, we’re lucky we get to do both for a living – and we want you to be part of where we go next. Helping our teammates soar is what we’re all about. And with a new fleet of state-of-the-art aircraft, plus new routes being added, the sky’s the limit.
Takeoff with your next opportunity
As part of our commitment to growing our pipeline of future leaders, we’re excited to be on the hunt for recent graduates to join our 2027 Graduate Program.
Dip your toes into something new, stopover in another role. Move around quickly. That’s what the Jetstar Graduate Program is all about - giving you the freedom to grow, steer and make the program yours. As a Jetstar Graduate, you are uniquely placed to immediately enjoy a fixed term whilst reaping the benefits of a two-year rotational program.
As a Jetstar Graduate, you’ll work on a variety of projects across our business that help shape the experience of both our customers and our Jetstar Team Members. You’ll gain broad exposure across the Jetstar Group, including our Jetstar‑branded airlines, as well as opportunities to collaborate with teams across the wider Qantas Group. From contributing to key business initiatives and transformation programs, to supporting operational and customer‑focused projects, you’ll build a strong foundation of skills and experience– all as part of your day‑to‑day role as a Jetstar Graduate.
Throughout the program, you will have access to a range of structured development initiatives, including monthly development days, work experience with our frontline team and regular coaching and shadowing with our senior leaders. As you approach completion of the 2-year program, we’ll partner with you to land you a role that ensures that your Jetstar career continues to soar.
Ready for your next adventure?
We’re on the hunt for someone who is:
- In your final year of studies, or completed, a undergraduate degree or postgraduate studies in the last two years
- Able to commence full employment with Jetstar in Melbourne in February 2027
- Confident to work autonomously and collaboratively within a team, ideally demonstrated through some previous work experience.
- Resilient and Flexible – curious and motivated to always learn, get involved and adapt to change
