Advertising Manager — Subclass 482 Pathway

Advertising Manager × Subclass 482 — pathway overview

Advertising Manager (ANZSCO 131113) qualifies for the Subclass 482 Skills in Demand visa through the Core Skills stream, as the occupation appears on the relevant occupation list for temporary employer-sponsored migration. The Subclass 482 is not points-tested; eligibility is established through approved employer sponsorship and a genuine position offer. The sponsoring employer must demonstrate that the nominated Advertising Manager position meets or exceeds the Core Skills Income Threshold and that genuine labour market testing has been conducted. A skills assessment may be required depending on the applicant's passport country, assessed by the relevant authority for business and management occupations. Key requirements include at least one year of recent relevant work experience in advertising management, meeting vocational English standards (IELTS 5.0 or equivalent in each band), satisfying health and character requirements, and having an employer sponsor hold or obtain approval as an Australian Business Sponsor. The visa is typically granted for up to four years. Visa holders who complete two years of full-time employment with the sponsoring employer may be eligible to transition to permanent residence through the Subclass 186 Temporary Residence Transition stream. For advice tailored to your individual circumstances, always consult a registered MARA migration agent.
