Employer-Sponsored Visas for Skilled Workers

Employer-sponsored visas offer a unique pathway for skilled national and international workers to live and work in Australia while contributing their expertise to Australian businesses. These visas allow workers to fill critical skill shortages in various sectors, ensuring that businesses have access to the talent they need to grow and thrive.

To be eligible for an employer-sponsored visa, the applicant must meet specific requirements, including possessing the necessary qualifications or relevant work experience in an occupation listed on the Australian Government’s Skilled Occupation List. This ensures that only individuals with the right skills and expertise are selected for these important roles, benefiting both the employee and the employer.

There are several types of employer-sponsored visas, each designed to meet the specific needs of businesses and skilled workers. These visas provide a great opportunity for international workers to gain permanent residency or temporary work rights, depending on the visa type and length of employment with the sponsoring employer.

As specialists, we at Skill City are dedicated to helping both employers and employees navigate the complexities of the Australian immigration system. Our expert migration agent partners have a wealth of experience in handling all types of employer-sponsored visas, including the Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) visa, the Employer Nomination Scheme (ENS) visa, and the Regional Sponsored Migration Scheme (RSMS) visa.
