Australia emigration success

For many people seeking work in Australia emigration is the final objective. A permanent residency visa is the ultimate prize.

Australia emigration can be a complex process but it’s made easier by applying good management skills.

Here’s the first-hand experience and some practical advice from two successful migrants whose professional skills helped them to navigate the Australia emigration process.

Keith Innes was a senior manager at a UK-based property company. His wife Ro was MD of a real estate company.

The couple, highly qualified and experienced professionals, succeeded in their dream of Australia emigration by taking the employer sponsor route. “In Australia many things are similar to UK, but some are very different and a professional must adapt quickly. Management experience gives you a flexible outlook and approach – as important in business as it is when negotiating the visa or migration process.

“Migration requires a great deal of organisation: research, preparation, attention to detail, patience, qualification, application of process – and all supported by good communication skills: everything you need and drawn upon, each day, in running a successful company.

“We both have extensive knowledge of and experience in running successful businesses, now we want to apply and share this with new colleagues, employees and community in Australia. Yes, one of the attractions of Oz is the lifestyle but it’s also about creating and being a part of something.”

Darrell Todd says: “Every day our clients tell us, ‘in UK it’s getting harder and harder not just to run a business but to do your job. Down Under, you can actually get to do what you studied and trained for, properly. It’s one of the reasons people want to leave UK.”

Essex-born Peter Walford retired after many years’ success in the financial trading sector of the City of London. Having gained their visa his family now live in Western Australia.

“The migration process can be a minefield,” says Peter, “so, just like in business, you have to be focused, organised and prepared to slug it out if necessary.

“When you’re responsible for people’s investments – like migration – you take a cautious approach. I wouldn’t risk other people’s money by making wrong decisions, so I was not going to make a mistake with my family’s future. Like in business, when it’s a mission-critical enterprise – like changing your life – you have to consult experts and take professional advice. I migrated via thinkingaustralia and I can say, from a business point of view and as a company, they seriously deliver the goods”.

Darrell Todd says: “For UK professionals and entrepreneurs seeking new opportunities Australia is the number one choice.

“There’s more freedom to succeed in Australia. You’ll benefit from familiar language; practices and regulations; you’ll find hard working people and a ‘can-do’ culture. You’ll be more successful and have a better lifestyle Down Under.”
