The breaking news for all qualified Welfare Centre Managers motivated with Australia Immigration is that you are ‘officially’ needed in the beautiful ‘Land of Kangaroos’, Australia, as the country is unable to find local talent to meet the growing demand for these professionals.

As per the Australian and New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations 134214 – Welfare Centre Managers, post Australia Immigration, are responsible to plan, organize, direct, supervise, control, monitor, and co-ordinate a centre or team, program or project concerned with social welfare support.

To make the cut for these responsibilities, you must have at least a three years bachelor’s degree or superior qualification from a recognized institute in relevant subject. A minimum of five years of demonstrated experience could replace the formal education. In certain cases, appropriate experience, and/or the first-hand training, is required, apart from the formal qualification.

Welfare Centre Managers Key Responsibilities

• Direct and manage the services, facilities of organization or centre.
• Build-up, implement and monitor various procedures, standards and policies for medical, nursing, allied health and administrative staff.
• Coordinate and administer health and welfare programs along with clinical services.

The increase in demand for Welfare Centre Manager does not only make the profession valuable but also make it one of the safest and prosperous options. It is likely with time the demand will increase further, and when local talent fails to meet the growing demand the oversee talent will be preferred with handsome pay cheques.

Luckily, these professionals have the freedom to choose their own path of immigration. The line-of-work has been clearly mentioned on Skilled Occupations List (SOL), the Consolidated Sponsored Occupations List, and the RSMS Occupations List. Other options are to be sponsored by an Australian employer. Under this category, you need to submit an Expression of Interest (EoI) on Skill Select only after completing specified mandatory formalities.
