I am presently employed in Blackwater Qld and am interested in pursuing a new career-path, ideally a development role within the Sports realm and in particular Rugby League as an example.

Although residing in Qld Australia currently, if a role did present itself I would consider relocating if successful in obtaining an opportunity like this. I have family in NZ and one I am also looking to be closer too.
