the release of a new app.<\/p>\n<p>The free smartphone app, created by Hi-er, is designed to amplify the promotion and distribution of job vacancies in those regions and provide another free tool to support businesses seeking staff.<\/p>\n<p>Jobseekers can give the thumbs up to tourism and hospitality job vacancies in Greater Geelong, The Bellarine, Great Ocean Road, and Grampians regions.<\/p>\n<p>In the week since its launch, there are already more than 40 jobs advertised on the Tourism Jobs Bank app, ranging from front-of-house hospitality staff and cleaners through to hotel management positions.<\/p>\n<p>Extra workers are needed every summer across the Greater Geelong and Great Ocean Road regions to help the tourism industry service the influx of visitors, and the app is intended to help jobseekers find their perfect holiday gig and fill essential tourism jobs ahead of the peak season.<\/p>\n<p>It is the latest initiative of the Tourism Jobs Bank, which was launched in October 2021 to help the region\u2019s tourism and hospitality businesses find skilled staff and offer training through regional organisations to ensure staff have a range of skills and can support businesses with payroll and staff management systems.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAttracting workers is the biggest challenge facing tourism operators at the moment, and we hope this app and integrated marketing campaign assists in some way to help support businesses recruiting in the lead up to summer,\u201d Great Ocean Road Regional Tourism general manager Liz Price said.<\/p>\n<figure

summer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Tourism Jobs Bank campaign is helping spread the word that from Greater Geelong to Portland and up to Halls Gap is a truly special corner of the globe to live, work, and play in,\u201d Tourism Greater Geelong and The Bellarine acting executive director Tracy Carter said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you\u2019re looking for work, download the app, upload your skills and details
