Corporate Services Manager × Subclass 482 — pathway overview
Corporate Services Manager (ANZSCO 132111) qualifies for the Subclass 482 Skills in Demand visa through the Core Skills stream, as the occupation appears on the relevant list for temporary employer-sponsored migration. The Subclass 482 is not points-tested; eligibility is established through an approved employer sponsor who nominates the applicant for a genuine position. The sponsoring employer must demonstrate that the nominated Corporate Services Manager position meets the Core Skills Income Threshold and that labour market testing has been conducted without finding suitable Australian candidates. A skills assessment may be required depending on the applicant's passport, with assessment conducted by the relevant body for business and management occupations. Key requirements include at least one year of relevant work experience in corporate services management, vocational English proficiency (IELTS 5.0 in each band or equivalent), approval of the employer as an Australian Business Sponsor, and standard health and character clearances. The visa is generally granted for up to four years. After two years of working for the sponsoring employer in the nominated role, holders may be eligible to transition to permanent residency through the Subclass 186 Temporary Residence Transition stream. For advice tailored to your individual circumstances, always consult a registered MARA migration agent.
