Whatever your paperwork allows you to do. Australia's pretty strict about who they let into the country, what they can do there and for how long, so just make sure you have the correct visa and that you understand its conditions. I believe that if you're aged between 18 and 30 you can spend 12 months in Australia doing casual work, but you can't have the same employer for more than 6 months.

I suggest you give fruit picking a go, it is a great way to make money, and see Australia. With different fruits being ready at different times of the year, it would be pretty constant too.
The amount paid usually depends on the amount picked, but as long as you are both fit and healthy, you should be able tp pick ample amounts. Good luck.

You don't say where you're coming from or under what visa. It isn't automatic that you can legally work at all.
