Since ****, Migration Downunder has helped people build their lives in Australia. Our clients include skilled professionals, tradespeople, students and families, as well as Australian and overseas businesses of all sizes with their workforce mobility requirements.
Our advisers and lawyers, based across our Sydney and Melbourne offices, work on skilled and employer sponsored visas, partner and family visas, citizenship and reviews of visa refusals and cancellations.
A granted visa can reunite a family or help a business bring in the skills it needs. As our Office Coordinator, you'll support the advisers and lawyers who make that happen and learn how an established immigration practice runs. We value professionalism, work life balance and a supportive team culture.
The role
This role suits someone who enjoys working with people and wants to build an administration career in a professional services practice. You'll be the first person many of our clients speak to, and you'll keep our office, billing paperwork and Department of Home Affairs correspondence on track.
You'll report to our Practice Manager, who will train you in our systems and procedures. As your confidence grows, you'll take on project work and cover some of the Practice Manager's tasks while they're on leave.
