    G’day Odoya and welcome to OVF. 🙂

    Finding a sponsored job in Australia in the oil and gas sector can be pretty challenging now many of the major projects have been completed and first gas achieved

    Still, its not impossible and the market is still pretty strong. Here are some steps to help you:

    1. Check Visa Options – The most relevant visas for employer sponsorship include:

    Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) visa (subclass 482) – Requires a job offer from an Australian employer.

    Skilled Employer Sponsored Regional (Provisional) visa (subclass 494) – If willing to work in regional areas.

    Employer Nomination Scheme (ENS) visa (subclass 186) – Permanent visa for skilled workers with sponsorship.

    2. Job Search – Start looking for roles that offer sponsorship through these platforms:

    https://482jobs.com – Our job board featuring confirmed visa-sponsored jobs.

    Seek.com.au – Australia’s largest job board.

    Indeed.com.au – Another major job search platform.

    LinkedIn.com – Search for recruiters hiring in your field and connect with professionals in Australia.

    3. Target Major Companies – Australia has key oil and gas employers such as:

    Woodside Energy

    Santos

    Chevron Australia

    Shell Australia

    BP Australia

    Origin Energy

    4. Enhance Your Chances

    Consider getting an Engineers Australia skills assessment if you plan for permanent migration. More info: http://www.engineersaustralia.org.au

    If your occupation is on the Skilled Occupation List (SOL), you might also explore independent skilled migration.

    Improve your resume to highlight your international experience with Total Energies and tailor it for Australian employers. The guide here might be of interest.

    If you need further guidance on visa options, feel free to ask. Best of luck with your job search! 🙂

    Regards
