Regional work in Northern Territory
Last updated: 2026-08-31
get88 holds 685 hospitality venues across 5 Northern Territory towns, each with an email address that accepts mail. Darwin is the biggest at 419.
Big towns have more venues and more people applying to them. Small towns have fewer of both. The table is sorted by size so you can pick your end of that trade before you book the bus.

Every count is a count of venues on the get88 list, not a census of Northern Territory. Only towns get88 has finished checking are listed here.
What the list covers
Hospitality, tourism and housekeeping roles only. There is no farm, construction, mining or fishing work on it. The setup is on the how it works page, and which postcodes and which work count is in the specified work guide.
get88 is a job-application tool, not migration advice. Whether any role counts toward your visa is decided by the Department of Home Affairs — check the official specified-work pages for the 417 and 462 visas directly.
