Offices in Sydney work Monday to Friday, typically 09:00–17:30 local time. Lunch is usually 12:30–13:30, and a meeting proposed inside it will be moved. The city's economy runs on finance, mining head offices, technology and property, which is who you are most likely to be calling. Early starts are normal because the morning is the only overlap with Europe, and Friday afternoons empty out.
The dates that most often break a cross-border schedule are Australia Day (26 January), Anzac Day (25 April), Easter (Good Friday to Easter Monday) and Christmas and Boxing Day (25–26 December). Expect slow replies during Christmas to the end of January, the summer holidays.
