Hiring demand across Hervey Bay
Health care and social assistance is Hervey Bay's largest employing sector, and the hospital expansion now in construction will add to demand for nurses and clinical support staff. Road duplication on the city's main approach keeps civil crews busy, and the industrial estates in Maryborough are within commuting range for trades and manufacturing workers.
Hervey Bay Hospital Expansion
Hospital Rescue Plan works adding an inpatient unit, an intensive care unit and a new helipad at Hervey Bay Hospital.

source ↗Recruitment licensing & compliance
Queensland separates recruitment from labour hire. A permanent placement with your Hervey Bay business is recruitment, and the labour hire licensing rules do not apply to it. When an agency supplies temp or contract workers, the Labour Hire Licensing Act 2017 has covered that work since 16 April 2018: the agency must be licensed, and the business can only use licensed agencies. We hold a Queensland licence and share the number on engagement, and the Queensland labour hire licensing site shows how to check any provider.
FAQs
Do employment agencies in Hervey Bay recruit for aged care?
We do. Worker screening now applies under the Aged Care Act 2024, so each candidate needs an NDIS Worker Screening Clearance or a recent police certificate, under 3 years old, free of the offences the rules specify. We confirm which one they hold, plus their qualifications, before shortlisting.
Can you find staff willing to work across Hervey Bay and Maryborough?
Yes. We ask candidates which locations and shift times suit them, and we only shortlist people who are comfortable with the travel between Hervey Bay and Maryborough if the role needs it.
How do I apply for work through TQN in Hervey Bay?
Register your CV, tell us your availability and the work you want, and include any tickets or registrations you hold. A recruiter will call before your details are sent to any Hervey Bay employer.
Can you supply temporary staff in Hervey Bay?
Yes. We employ temporary and contract staff ourselves and supply them as a licensed Queensland labour hire provider, which suits leave cover, holiday peaks and short projects.
