Transport & Logistics
Transport & Logistics Recruitment
Australia's supply chains depend on a steady pipeline of skilled tradespeople and drivers — yet many of the roles employers need most sit outside the standard skilled visa pathway. Lorg Talent recruits permanent, work-ready professionals across Transport & Logistics trades and driving occupations, sourced locally and internationally.
Where standard 482 sponsorship isn't available — as with truck and bus drivers — we work with AHWC Immigration Law to arrange DAMA or Company Specific Labour Agreements, unlocking pathways most agencies can't offer.

Why Lorg Talent
We combine deep local networks with international sourcing across Ireland, the UK, South Africa, Canada and New Zealand. HD Mechanics and Auto Electricians move through our standard 482 TSS pathway, managed end-to-end by AHWC Immigration Law. Truck and bus drivers sit outside the standard occupation list, so eligibility depends on a DAMA or Company Specific Labour Agreement — which AHWC arranges and manages to suit each employer. One partner, one process — reducing risk, admin, and time-to-hire.
Designated Area Migration Agreements (DAMA)
Truck and bus drivers are in high demand — yet neither sits on the standard 482 occupation list.
Lorg Talent, working alongside AHWC Immigration Law, solves this through DAMA and Company Specific Labour Agreements, giving employers a genuine visa pathway for the driving occupations that matter most.
What Is a DAMA?
A DAMA is an agreement between the Australian Government and a designated region allowing approved employers to sponsor overseas workers outside standard occupation lists, with concessions on salary, English requirements, and age limits. Western Australia's state-wide DAMA and South Australia's Regional Workforce DAMA both include Truck Driver and Bus & Coach Driver occupations, unlocking a pathway that doesn't otherwise exist for these roles.
Why It Matters
DAMA and Labour Agreements are negotiated by region and by employer — accessing them requires the right agreement in place first. Lorg Talent works directly with AHWC Immigration Law to confirm whether a suitable DAMA already applies, or negotiate a Company Specific Labour Agreement where one doesn't.
How It Works
Eligibility Assessment
01
AHWC assesses whether an employer's region falls under an existing DAMA covering these roles.
02
Agreement Pathway
Where none applies, AHWC negotiates a Company Specific Labour Agreement.
03
Candidate Sourcing
Lorg Talent sources qualified drivers matched to the agreement's requirements.
04
Sponsorship & Onboarding
AHWC manages visa sponsorship end-to-end.
Why Lorg Talent
Few recruitment firms have the immigration expertise to navigate DAMA and Labour Agreements. Operating alongside AHWC Immigration Law, part of the Taaffe Family Group, we offer transport employers a pathway to driver talent that doesn't exist elsewhere in the market.
