Hi Danie,
Thanks for reaching out and welcome to ozvisaforum ☺️.
With your 20+ years of experience you have a solid foundation to explore visa sponsorship opportunities in Australia.
Let’s look at your options and the process to follow.
Occupation Classification: Your role aligns with the ANZSCO (Australian and New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations) code 321212 – Diesel Motor Mechanic.
This occupation is in demand in Australia and is listed on the Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL), making it eligible for various skilled visa pathways.
Visa Options:
1. Skills in Demand (SID) Visa – Subclass 482:
Temporary visa allowing you to work in Australia for up to four years.
Requires a job offer from an Australian employer willing to sponsor you.
You must have at least two years of relevant work experience.
English Requirement: Minimum IELTS score of 5.0 overall, with no band less than 4.5.
2. Employer Nomination Scheme (ENS) Visa – Subclass 186:
Permanent residency visa.
Requires nomination by an Australian employer.
You must have a positive skills assessment and at least three years of relevant work experience.
English Requirement: Competent English, which is an IELTS score of at least 6.0 in each band.
3. Skilled Employer Sponsored Regional (Provisional) Visa – Subclass 494:
Allows you to live and work in regional Australia for up to five years.
Requires a job offer in a designated regional area.
English Requirement: IELTS score of at least 6.0 in each band.
Skills Assessment: For the Diesel Motor Mechanic occupation, the assessing authority is Trades Recognition Australia (TRA).
You will need to undergo a skills assessment to verify that your qualifications and experience meet Australian standards.
Job Search Resources: To find job opportunities with visa sponsorship:
1. https://482jobs.com – This is one of our own websites, and all jobs listed here offer Australian visa sponsorship.
2. Seek – https://seek.com.au
3. Indeed – https://indeed.com.au
You can also explore specific job categories relevant to your field:

English Language Requirements: Meeting the English language requirement is crucial for visa applications. Accepted tests include IELTS, PTE, TOEFL, and OET. Ensure you achieve the minimum required scores for the specific visa subclass you are applying for.
Next Steps:
Consider having your skills assessed by TRA to ensure they meet Australian standards.
Begin searching for job opportunities through the resources mentioned above.
Prepare for and take the required English language test to meet the visa requirements.
I hope this information helps you and your family in planning your move to Australia.
If you have further questions or need assistance with any step of the process, feel free to ask.

Hello again, Danie – I’m afraid not, though I’d note that almost every job we share on 482jobs.com is also available on other websites, so you’re welcome to search for these roles elsewhere.
Just to clarify that 482job is essentially a job consolidation service that brings together all the jobs from various job and company websites and lists them in one place. Our members become ‘482 job club members’ as they benefit from someone else finding the roles rather than having to search themselves.
Our memberships start at under $1, and I share this next with you with all due respect.
If this is an issue for you, then I’m afraid you might struggle with this visa path.
Regardless of the employer’s willingness to cover costs, there are items such as skills assessments, health checks, and English tests that need to be completed in support of your visa application.
These costs can be hundreds, sometimes thousands of dollars, so if you are genuinely keen on moving to Australia, I would encourage you to save some funds before commencing your search.
Not necessarily so you can join 482jobs, but more so you can apply for a job and not miss the opportunity because you don’t have the funds to validate your skills through a skills assessment. 😔
All the best
Regards
Mark
