Our PortCareers tour begins with a presentation which explores career pathways and our DVD presentation which highlights the workplace activities that take place at the Port of Brisbane, Australia’s third busiest capital-city port. Your group can then proceed through our interactive display area before reboarding your bus with our Education Officer to see towering cranes loading and unloading ships, and trucks and trains moving cargo in and out of the port. Find out more about the wide range of occupations and technologies involved with the many products imported and exported everyday.
