Looking for a change of pace and the opportunity to make a remote roadhouse your own? We are looking for practical, reliable and down-to-earth people to join the team at Dunmarra Roadhouse in the Northern Territory.

Dunmarra Roadhouse has operated for more than 50 years and is now entering an exciting new chapter, with plans for a complete restoration into a modern facility hub featuring state-of-the-art equipment. You will join at the beginning and have the opportunity to help shape the operation, customer experience and culture as the current Dunmarra comes to life.

A great opportunity for a couple

If you and your partner have complementary backgrounds in management, hospitality, catering, tourism, accommodation, remote camps or customer service, this could be a great opportunity to take on a new challenge together.

We're particularly interested in a couple where one person has the capability to take ownership of the roadhouse operation and the other enjoys hospitality and preparing good, practical meals.

Not a couple? No problem. We welcome individual applications for either position.

Interested?
