Transition from 417 to skills visa


Recommended Posts

I'm UK citizen currently 5 months into a WHV 417 in Perth. I'm working as a Contracts Officer for a mining organization. There is no opportunity for employer spon but I'm trying to understand my eligibility for another visa. I registered on skillselect and I think I qualify for a skills visa under Contracts Administrator, and my partner would need to be defacto on my application (he doesn't have a listed skill)

I have a BA and an MSc, and min 3 years experience within procurement.

  • September 2014 - March 2015: Junior Buyer (this may not count) (6 months)
  • March 2015 - November 2017: Contracts Specialist (2 years 7 months)
  • April 2018 - October 2018: Contracts Officer (6 months)

Does anybody have any experience transitioning from a 417 onto a skills visa? Is there a tried and tested migration agent that anyone can recommend for advice?
