A number of established astronomers and technical staff in Australia got their start as ESO Fellows, User Support astronomers or engineers at ESO, highlighting how these roles can provide an excellent springboard to a fulfilling career in Australia.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> With the Australian Astronomy Decadal Plan Mid-Term Review reinforcing Australia's commitment to full ESO membership, and the current Strategic Partnership, this is an excellent opportunity for Australian scientists and instrumentation specialists to play a key role. Australians enjoy the same preference in recruitment as those from ESO member states, and while we acknowledge the current COVID situation in the northern hemisphere makes any international move daunting, the anticipated rollout of COVID vaccines and other measures throughout 2021 should help ameliorate this. Here are all the positions currently open at <a href="https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/ZNRWCr81nytzkwjGf7hwsq?domain=recruitment.eso.org/">ESO Recruitment</a>:<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p>
