Want a peek at the best jobs in Australia? Job site Indeed might just have given it to us.

According to Indeed, which claims to have more than 200 million unique visitors a month and is one of the largest sites of its kind in the world, some of the best jobs in Australia come from the education, construction and IT industries.
