Sorry to hear that; that's terrible :-(

I'm from Brisbane, but am currently overseas (I'm going home soon!). My only contact who could (maybe) hire someone has just left the country for a few weeks.

What experience do they have? What are their doctorates in? Where in Brisbane are they?

Edit: you could try asking on /r/brisbane too: https://pay.reddit.com/r/brisbane

Hey, thank you so much for commenting.

My father has a PhD and my mother's doctorate is in educational management. My mother's experience includes office manager, finance officer, operations / communication officer and site manager. My father has done... everything - lecturer, social worker, program coordinator, truck driver (in his younger years).

I do want to emphasise that they would be happy to do anything that is not labour-intensive (both are in their 50s), and would certainly not consider any work "beneath them."

They are currently based near Ipswich but would not be averse to a long commute.

Thanks again!
