While there are lots of opportunities for expats living in Australia and Australian's usually give preference to the best candidate for the job rather than making a decision based on where someone is from, the fact is that unemployment is high in Adelaide. Therefore job opportunities are more limited than those in other Australian cities like Sydney and Melbourne. Furthermore, salaries are lower here than in the rest of Australia
However, as locals leave Adelaide for other cities in Australia, many of the companies operating in Adelaide are looking for skilled expat workers.
You success will depend on your personal experience as well as how good you are at networking.

Good luck.
