The Harbour CIty<\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n<p>If you don\u2019t live here, you probably should. That\u2019s the sentiment of everyone at the Motion Recruitment offices anyway, an equal blend of locals and ex-pats who\u2019ve traveled the world and settled on Sydney as their final destination. One of the main reasons for this, our passionate crew reckon, is the fact that the most beautiful Harbour in the world is right there on our doorstep. Whether you&#8217;re heading for a beer at Opera Bar after work, going for a run at lunch, or enjoying a Saturday morning picnic The single most beautiful Harbour in the world is right there for the taking \u2013 weekend walks, ferries to work, and an afternoon beer under the sails of the Opera House. If you\u2019re living in Sydney and not looking out over the beautiful blue waters of the Harbour at least once a week, you\u2019re doing it wrong!<\/p>\n<p><u><strong>2. The Business Centre of Australia<\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n<p>Melbourne has a lot going for it, we know: a fantastic arts scene, great night-life, some of the biggest sporting events in the world\u2026 But when it comes to business there\u2019s no arguing that Sydney is the capital of Australia. The biggest companies, the biggest jobs, and the best talent all flock to the nation\u2019s biggest city because that\u2019s where the opportunities are. As technology brings countries closer together, Sydney will continue to be larger and more dominant in this respect, being the platform for Australian businesses on the world stage.<\/p>\n<p><u><strong>3. Sunny Side Up<\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s no other way to cut it: Sydney has an epic climate. A little less heat and humidity than further north, a little less rain and chill than our neighbours below the border, Sydney has the sort of weather everybody else in the world dreams about. Which is great, because&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><u><strong>4. Work Life Balance<\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n<p>Being outdoors is rooted in our way of life here, and work is only a part of the mix. Whether you&#8217;re hitting the beach with your family, sipping on a cold one in a sunny beer garden, or going for a run or walk at one of our many waterfront tracks, there&#8217;s a range of activities (and a stack of time outside of work) to keep you fresh and happy. The fact that there&#8217;s so much demand for top tech talent in Australia also means that you can often build your package to reflect your preferences and lifestyle.<\/p>\n<p><u><strong>5.\u00a0A Bourgeoning Technology Industry<\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n<p>We all know that governments love to talk a big game and promise the world, but the fact is \u2013 Sydney is fast becoming a technological hub, and the state and national governments are investing to make that happen faster. The massive business Atlassian grew out of Sydney soil and a roster of other tech start-ups, not to mention a range of other grassroots and bluechip businesses, are all based in the city. Innovation seeds innovation, and talent brings more talent.The opportunities over the next five years, in such an exciting and evolving employment market, will be limitless.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n<p><em>If you&#8217;re keen to look at a move to Sydney, or you&#8217;re in the market, reach out to us today!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re in technology, there&#8217;s a raft of reasons why a move to Sydney should be on the cards. 1.
