visa sponsorship or skiller regional visa
Hi,
I have over 20 years of experience in sales and customer service. I have worked a real estate agent, property management, recruitment consultant, and insurance agent. I am currently a Client Relations Manager and Customer Servie Trainer within the property sector. I was wondering if my best chances of a move to Australia is through visa sponsorship or skilled regional visa? I have lived in Queensland previously for 4 years and I would like to ideally move to the Gold Cost.
Many thanks

Recommendation:
Given your current role as a Client Relations Manager and Customer Service Trainer within the property sector, the Property Manager (ANZSCO 612112) occupation appears to be the most aligned with your experience.
This occupation is listed on the Short-Term Skilled Occupation List (STSOL), making it eligible for various visa options, including:

- Subclass 491 (Skilled Work Regional Visa): For skilled workers nominated by a state or territory government to live and work in regional Australia.
- Subclass 494 (Employer Sponsored Regional Visa): Requires sponsorship by an employer in regional Australia.
Your previous residence in Queensland and desire to return to the Gold Coast could strengthen your case for state nomination under the Subclass 190 or 491 visas.
Suggested Next Steps:
1. Skills Assessment: Obtain a positive skills assessment from VETASSESS for the Property Manager occupation.
2. State Nomination: Explore Queensland’s nomination requirements for the Subclass 190 and 491 visas.
3. Employer Sponsorship: If considering the Subclass 494 visa, identify potential employers in regional Queensland willing to sponsor you.
I hope this information helps you with some initial first steps.
If you have further questions or need assistance with any of the steps mentioned, feel free to ask.
