Australian Border Force recruiting Broome locals after success of Singapore flights
The Australian Border Force is looking for Broome locals to carry out the customs and immigration clearances required for international passengers following success of the inaugural Singapore flights from Broome International Airport. ABF Assistant Commissioner Chris Waters said the force was looking to build up a local workforce to service the increase of international flights to Singapore. 'We are looking for people to wear the ABF uniform with pride and perform the frontline roles required for processing passengers from international flights at Broome International Airport,' he said. 'This is a really important role for our officers as we are often the first impression for international tourists arriving in Australia, and we pride ourselves in making that a positive experience.' Commissioner Waters said international flights twice a week from Singapore during the dry season, meant additional officers were now required on a casual, flexible basis. 'As well as working at the airport processing passengers, you will also have the opportunity to perform a wide range of operational roles, including the processing of cargo, aircraft, vessels, pleasure craft and marine crew arriving and departing Australia, to name just a few,' he said. 'We are really excited to offer these roles to Broome-based residents and believe it will offer tremendous opportunities and open up a world of experiences for the successful candidates.' Interested locals can read more about the role and apply by going to the APS Jobs website.

PHOTOS: What to expect at Tucker County's Valley View Cabin Resort Despite opening Friday, the resort plans on more than doubling its capacity. Once the resort is complete, there'll be around 30 cabins available in total as well as a spa as part of the $20 million project. Managing Partner of Valley View Cabin Resort, Chris Waters, said the cabins have been open since December, but they waited until the weather got better for the ceremony. He said that there has been a great amount of interest in the resort since opening and that the natural beauty of the area is something to behold. 'This is one of the most beautiful places in West Virginia and even the East Coast,' Waters said. Officials with Valley View said that a night stay at the resort costs around $175 in the off-season and $350-400 in the ski season. You can go to Valley View's website to see its current offerings.
