As this article goes live, the Top Job in Australia is up for grabs. Secretly, it was up for grabs several weeks ago during the Labor Party spill when Julia Gillard stepped up to the podium as the nation's first female Prime Minister and Kevin Rudd was sent packing. Not all top jobs in Australia become available through such in-fighting activity. Some are the result of promotion, company growth, interstate expansion and so on. We love to see executive job postings flourish on SMStheJOB because it speaks volumes about the state of our economy. But would a candidate for this kind of role sign up for text message alerts?

You bet they would, and they do. SMStheJOB is a vital resource for all job seekers, regardless of the calibre of position they require. Granted, you are unlikely to find something like ex-David Jones CEO Mark McInnes' recently vacated role posted on our site, but the vast range and variety of executive jobs in Australia lends itself very well to the kind of alert system we offer. A huge number of IT positions, for instance can be found at SMStheJOB and candidates for these roles appreciate the opportunity to learn of them sooner than if they had to scour the newspaper ads or online job-seeking websites.

So what are the growth sectors in which top executive jobs Australia can be found? Well, as you may expect, the resources boom has delivered more employment opportunities. But perhaps at the opposite end of nature's bounty is sustainability. Instead of drawing from the earth, giving back to it is what sustainability is all about, and the industry's top jobs attract some of the best and brightest executives looking to make a difference.

Anything Internet-related is sure to be a winner with those looking for executive jobs in IT. From social media applications to games, iPhone apps, venture capital, hardware, software ... the Internet is a mecca for hard-working, forward-thinking executives whose careers are on a fast track to success.

As one would expect, a healthy CV, lengthy track record and plenty of relevant experience are all vital elements when seeking a top job in Australia, or anywhere in the world for that matter. Tertiary degrees are not always fundamental criteria, given that many executive jobs are filled by people who have worked their way up from the most basic entry level roles.

The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) recently revealed that Australia has enjoyed nine consecutive months of growth in full time employment. The latest expectations from Australians in executive roles indicate belief that continued growth will continue in the upcoming quarter, good news indeed for those seeking top jobs.
