About the role

ANZPEO is looking for an experienced Registered Migration Agent to join our team and manage our Australian migration matters in-house, while also supporting the employment and administrative processes that sit around our visa sponsorship service

Australian migration will be the primary focus of the role. You’ll independently manage Australian employer-sponsored visa matters from initial assessment through to decision, working directly with clients, applicants and relevant government authorities.

As visa sponsorship forms part of ANZPEO’s wider Employer of Record service, this is a hands-on role within a small and growing business. Alongside your migration work, you’ll support the employment and client administration that is part of ANZPEO’s visa process, including client onboarding and employment documentation. Previous HR or employment administration experience would be beneficial, but isn’t essential, as our internal processes can be learnt as part of the role.

You’ll also coordinate New Zealand visa matters, working with clients and applicants to collate the information and documentation required by our external New Zealand immigration lawyer. You won’t be expected to provide New Zealand immigration advice.You’ll work closely with the wider ANZPEO team, with support across the visa and employment process. As part of a small team, roles and priorities can evolve, so there may also be times when you’re asked to support other areas of the business where needed.

Working at ANZPEO

ANZPEO provides Employer of Record, Visa Sponsorship, Payroll and HR solutions across Australia and New Zealand, supporting international businesses to employ and manage their people locally.

We’re a growing, family-owned business with a close-knit team supporting clients and employees across Australia and New Zealand.

This is a full-time, remote role available Australia-wide, with Greater Sydney preferred. The role is worked across five days, with reasonable flexibility around working hours to accommodate personal and family commitments.

While the role is remote, travel to Sydney will be required from time to time for team get-togethers and other business requirements.
