  • Proven experience working with an Australian law firm in immigration law (at least 1–2 years required).
  • Strong knowledge of Australian immigration processes, DHA compliance, and lodgement procedures.
  • Proficiency in legal practice management software (e.g., LEAP, Smokeball, Actionstep).
  • Excellent written and spoken English with strong client communication skills.
  • Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple cases and meet deadlines.
  • High attention to detail, proactive, and able to work independently with minimal supervision.

  • Experience supporting Australian solicitors directly.

What We Offer:

  • Competitive salary package based on experience.
  • Opportunity to work with Australian solicitors and gain exposure to complex immigration matters.
