Company Description

Darwin is a city unlike anywhere else in Australia. Stunning harbour sunsets, world class markets, a thriving food and bar scene, and a gateway to some of the country's most extraordinary landscapes including Kakadu, Litchfield and the Tiwi Islands.

It's a place where lifestyle and career can genuinely coexist, and for the right person, it's a sea change worth making. At the heart of it all, Novotel, Mercure and ibis Darwin Airport Resorts are in the middle of an exciting transformation. Airport Development Group has invested $25 million to create a world class destination, with major upgrades across accommodation, dining and events, all set within newly landscaped tropical gardens that capture the spirit of the Top End.

As part of the global Accor network with over 5,700 hotels across 110 countries, we are guided by a clear purpose: pioneering the art of responsible hospitality, connecting cultures with heartfelt care.

Here, you don't just work in hospitality. You become a Heartist.
