Question

I am a south African with New Zealand permenent residence i have been offered a job in australia what permit?

Answer 1

NZ Permanent Residency is not enough to be allowed to work in Australia unfortunately. While it works the other way round (Aus PR's allowed to work in NZ), NZ Permanent Residents are not allowed to work in Australia.

Answer 2

The easiest way to avoid problems would be to becoming an New Zealand citizen, but I doubt you have time for that.

http://www.immi.gov.au should be able to answer your question otherwise try the embassy.

Answer 3

Without knowing any details, you'd probably be on a section 457 visa, but if your under 30 and from certain countries your alllowed to do extended working holidays without any dramas.
