Senior Paralegal

Migration Case Manager / Senior Paralegal — Australian Migration

(Remote, Philippines-based)

Are you a highly organised case management professional who loves taking real ownership of complex files Join a well-established Australian migration practice in a full-time offshore role where you'll drive the day-to-day preparation and progression of migration matters — working closely with, and under the supervision of, Registered Migration Agents.

What you'll be doing

• Managing allocated migration matters end-to-end — from opening new files through to lodgement and post-lodgement follow-up
• Preparing visa applications across categories such as employer-sponsored (482, 186, 494), partner, student, visitor and skilled migration visas
• Supporting employer-sponsored and nomination matters, ensuring consistency across sponsorship, nomination and visa components
• Preparing partner and family migration evidence, including relationship chronologies and draft statutory declarations
• Maintaining proactive client communication — chasing documents, providing updates, and knowing exactly when to escalate a substantive question to the supervising practitioner
• Running quality control on every file before it reaches the practitioner: checking completeness, consistency, and flagging outstanding issues clearly

What we're looking for

• Substantial case-management, paralegal or comparable professional experience
• Excellent written and spoken English, with exceptional attention to detail
• Strong document-management and analytical skills, with the ability to spot inconsistencies across large volumes of information
• Confidence managing multiple matters and deadlines independently
• Sound judgement about when to escalate — you understand the line between case management and legal advice

Bonus points for

Previous experience with an Australian migration agency, immigration law firm, or offshore team supporting Australian migration professionals — particularly with employer-sponsored (482/186) matters or ImmiAccount and similar case-management systems. A legal, paralegal, or business qualification is a plus, but hands-on Australian migration case-management experience will be valued just as highly.

Why this role

This is a genuine ownership role, not administrative support. You'll be trusted with a portfolio of matters, know exactly what's outstanding and what's next, and ensure every file that reaches the practitioner is organised, consistent and ready for efficient review — as part of a team structured to let each professional operate at the right level.
