Australia is short tens of thousands of construction workers. Employers are ready to sponsor skilled tradespeople — we match you with them, and a registered migration agent or lawyer handles the visa side.
No payment, no lock-in, no risk to your current visa. You register once — we contact you when an employer matches your trade.
Tell us your trade, experience and visa situation. Two minutes, on this page.
We match you with employers who are hiring and willing to sponsor.
The employer meets you by phone or video. If it's a fit, they make an offer.
A registered migration agent or lawyer manages the sponsorship and visa process. We stay with you until you start on site.
Every core construction trade is officially in shortage in Australia. If your trade is on this list — or close to it — register.
Free, confidential, no obligation. We only share your details with an employer when there's a real role that fits you.
We place skills-assessed, sponsor-ready tradespeople with builders and contractors across Australia. Visa work handled by a registered migration agent or lawyer. No placement, no fee.
Fill this in and we'll come back to you within one business day — or email us directly at jobs@migrationledger.com.
No. Nothing, ever. It is illegal in Australia to ask a worker for payment in return for visa sponsorship — any "agent" who asks you to pay for a sponsorship is breaking the law. We never will.
Yes — onshore candidates are our priority. New fast-tracked skills assessments through Trades Recognition Australia are specifically designed for visa holders already in Australia with trade qualifications and practical experience.
Register anyway. Skills assessments can recognise overseas qualifications and practical experience — and we match skilled roles beyond the trades list too. The migration agent or lawyer will confirm what applies to your trade.
A registered migration agent or Australian legal practitioner — engaged directly, not by us. We handle the job match; they handle the migration side. We do not give migration advice.
Typically the employer-sponsored Skills in Demand visa (subclass 482), which for core construction trades carries a pathway to permanent residency. The migration agent or lawyer will confirm what fits your situation.
