Mr Hodgman spoke in front of about 200 supporters, including candidates from across the state, at the launch at the Boathouse on Northbank.
Mr Hodgman promised the 5000 new jobs during a Liberal first term as a result of the party's policies.
He also released a plan for the first 100 days of his administration if he wins the March 15 poll.
He said the jobs would be created through a four-pronged jobs plan, that will include a $12 million regional infrastructure fund, payroll tax relief through a year-long extension of the existing tax rebate, a $1000 bonus for each job created by small business and a two-year waiver of headworks charges on developments.
