I agree regarding the visa predicament. Australia, within the last few years, began seriously limiting working migrant visa's (with the abolition and re-classification of the 457 visa). Everyone I know either came over as a student and then on a bridging visa, or are part of an inter-company transfer. The poster will likely have more success with a inter-company transfer; but its a very long process to then become a "permanent resident." Don't limit yourself to just Sydney, though.
