Are you licenced in Queensland? If not, you will need to be before you can legally work. Further info....http://www.bsa.qld.gov.au/Home/Build...ngInformation/

N o you can legally work for someone else, also if you are working on your own you can work under a certain amount with out a licence

Re: Tiler looking for work
 

You sure can;) You only need a licence if you want to be a sub-contractor/contractor. If your happy to work for wages, far less stress, then it's not really that important.
With tiling it's difficult to stay below the $1100 threshold as it's inclusive of materials & labour, that limits you roughly to under 16m² per job, not nearly enough to pay the bills:(
I don't know the situation down there on the Gold Coast but up here there's no shortage of builders that love to rip off unlicenced blokes, I know a few that have been stung for a couple of grand. It happened to me while I was waiting for mine to come through:curse:
