Gilton Business Consultants is the registered business name of John M Gillespie. Gilton has provided immigration advice and assistance since 1982 in all migration categories, covering both permanent and temporary entry. Clients include individuals, corporations and solicitors. |
Experience
Australian migration law requires persons who provide immigration advice to be registered by the "Migration Agents Registration Authority". I am a registered migration agent (Registration Number 9250206).
In 1989 I was contracted by the Australian Migration Consultants Association to develop and conduct training courses for Accredited Agents for the Business Migration Program. Attendance at these courses was compulsory for accredited agents.
A substantial amount of work undertaken by Gilton involves business migration of individuals and the formulation of Labour Agreements. A Labour Agreement is a method of allowing people who have skills and qualifications in a particular industry sector to migrate to Australia. The agreements are negotiated with several government departments and are generally undertaken on behalf of large corporations who wish to employ a number of staff in Australia. Procedures also exist for Regional Headquarters Agreements which facilitate relocation to Australia.

Examples of agreements negotiated are:

- International staff for temporary residence for a Queensland international holiday resort - over 80 people.
- Relocation of IT staff for a major international airline to Australia for permanent residency - over 40 people.
Philosophy
The philosophy of Gilton Business Consultants is the provision of realistic advice. Cases which have no chance of success are not accepted. Because of the nature of immigration law, which involves interpretation by the Department of Immigration, no guarantee of success can ever be given. Where a chance of failure is identified, this is fully discussed with the client.
