Skilled Migrant Employment Register

Western Australia has recently experienced its lowest unemployment rates since the resource boom and has a widespread need for skilled workers across many sectors and parts of the state. 

The Skilled Migrant Employment Register is a free initiative supporting employers and skilled migrants to connect to build the Western Australian workforce. 

Details of skilled migrants who have indicated they are seeking Western Australian employment opportunities, such as preferred occupation, current location and employment intentions are published on the Skilled Migrant Employment Register. This register is updated on a regular basis.
