It's hard enough to find a job these days, let alone a good job, so we created WORK - a job listings page for the creatively minded and culturally aware. Featuring design, fashion, web development, retail and other work opportunities in Perth we hope that WORK works for you. To inform us of any upcoming positions at your company or agency please email talk@sixthousand.com.au
As the people of MOR Cosmetics continue on their path to global domination via traditional apothecary techniques, they will need a Junior Graphic Designer to join them. And soon! Based in a very nice-smelling converted warehouse off Little Lonsdale Street, MOR is a global luxury cosmetics brand run by a friendly head office team in Melbourne.
Hair. What are you going to do to it? Cut it, that's what. And Nick at All the Kings Men manages to combine the unpretentious charm of an old-school barbershop with the reassuring artfulness of a ritzy salon, without all the hair tonic, herbal tea and unsightly fauxhawks.
To illustrate, I present this simple before and after case study of my boyfriend.
Simon Griffiths and his team have started a philanthropic project called Shebeen. It's the kind of idea that's so simple and elegant you want to slap yourself (or someone nearby) because you didn't think of it, but it also has the potential to be revolutionary, and Simon is probably crazy enough to make it work.
OK, so this one ain't exactly a tough gig to sell. Ant!podium, the tongue-in-chic, London-based, Australian fashion label are on the hunt for a part-time Australasian Brand Manager. Not only do you get a sweet intercontinental job title, they're also offering flexible hours, extensive travel, exciting rewards and the opportunity to work from the comfort of your living room.
When we mention the Centre for Contemporary Photography our use of the definite article is both deliberate and emphatic. As in, it is THE Centre for Contemporary Photography not 'a' Centre for Contemporary Photography. From 1986 the CCP has been Melbourne's premier venue for exhibiting, appreciating and learnifying contemporary photographic practice.
Listen up you guys! This is a pretty special opportunity. You know those conversations you have with your mates where you talk about how awesome it would be to run your own bar? Well this is your chance to make it happen.Get out your pen and paper, put on your thinking pants, and show the guys behind The Premise what you're made of.
You probably know that Right Angle publish The Thousands, but we are more, much more! If you ever drank at The Pond, puffed up six flights of stairs to Rooftop Cinema or had the fortune to attend a week-long music event called Children of The Night (which, just quietly, almost killed us) then you'll have an idea of the scope of our work.

SixThousand is a subcultural guide to Perth, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Perth writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence SixThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
