ANZ-Indeed Australian Job Ads rose 1.8% month-over-month in June 2025, rebounding from a downwardly revised 0.6% fall in the previous month and marking the first increase since March. It was also the strongest monthly gain since September 2024, pointing to continued labour market resilience despite lower interest rates. “After two consecutive months of decline, the series has bounced back from 114.8 in May to 116.9 in June," said ANZ economist Aaron Luk. “Given the ongoing tightness in Australia’s labour market and the overall resilience in its economy, we maintain our expectation that this easing cycle will be relatively shallow," he added. The job market has held up better than expected, with the unemployment rate steady at a historically low 4.1%. However, the central bank anticipates it could rise to 4.3% amid growing risks from U.S. tariffs that threaten global trade. On a yearly basis, job ads slipped 0.4% but remained 16.1% above pre-pandemic levels. source: ANZ - Indeed Australian Job Ads

Australia Job Ads Rise the Most in 3 Months
ANZ-Indeed Australian Job Ads rose 0.5% month-over-month in April 2025, following a 0.4% increase in the previous month and marking the second straight monthly gain—the strongest pace since January. The latest data pointed to a still-resilient labour market, though uncertainty from global trade tensions continues to cloud the outlook. Job ads in the retail sector rose further, buoyed by Easter, making it one of the strongest-performing industries this year, Indeed Senior Economist Callam Pickering said. Listings for HR professionals also saw a sharp increase, potentially indicating that employers are preparing to scale up hiring. However, these gains were offset by continued declines in job ads for education and food preparation and service roles. Year-on-year, job ads were down 5.1% but remained 16.2% above pre-pandemic levels. “Global trade uncertainty is expected to impact domestic consumer and business sentiment,” said ANZ economist Aaron Luk.
